Everyone with career sense in Russia will deny that, of course. They probably even believe it, in the sense that they're so indifferent to the truth of the matter that they don't even feel they are lying when they say the window-jumper was just a suicide and accusing FSB is preposterous. Maybe you'll find a few who will say, off the record, that of course it wasn't a suicide. But those people aren't rare in the US either! Feds are just as "paranoid" as the rest of in these matters.
