India is investigating sudden deaths of a wealthy Russian politician Pavel Antov and his travelling companion Vladimir Bidenov at a luxury hotel, police say
Antov and his friends had arrived in mid-December and visited several locations before arriving at their hotel in Rayagada at the start of last week, police say.
"All possible angles as regards to the deaths of two Russian nationals are being verified," regional police chief Rajesh Pandit told the AFP news agency. Bidenov's heart attack had likely been caused by binge drinking and a possible drug overdose, Pandit said."He was probably disturbed by the death of his friend and went to the hotel terrace and likely fell to his death from there."
