“The Homicide Bureau continues to look into the circumstances of the suicide. Investigators have no suspicions of a violent nature of the death,” RIA Novosti cites a statement.

On March 19, it became known that ex-striker and coach Koltsov died suddenly at the age of 43. According to one version, he committed suicide.

Let us recall that he was the winner of the 2011 Gagarin Cup as part of Salavat Yulaev. The forward played for the Pittsburgh Penguins from 2002 to 2006.

It was previously reported that Koltsov’s ex-wife believes that his death was an accident.
