Russian propaganda media reported the official cause of death of Russian music critic and TV host Sergei Sosedov, who died after falling down a staircase at a hotel. The theory that the fall might have been caused by a blood clot was not confirmed.

The 58-year-old Sosedov was found to have a skull base fracture, a hemorrhage, and cerebral edema. The consequences of this severe head injury are cited as the cause of death. Earlier, it was speculated that he might have died from a thromboembolism. However, the theory that the fall could have been triggered by a blood clot has not been confirmed.

At the same time, the TV host’s relatives have not yet received the official expert report. According to Russian media reports, they have only been preliminarily informed of the autopsy results.
