The team of CID-Crime Branch, headed by a senior officer, will visit Rayagada on Thursday for further investigation. The team will visit the hotel where the deceased and two other Russian tourists were staying, among other places.

According to the CID-Crime Branch, preliminary investigation has revealed that the Russian nationals were on a trip to the tribal region of Odisha. The Crime Branch said it was conducting background checks on all of them, including their travel history.

On why the bodies were cremated and not sent to their families in Russia, the Crime Branch officer said the bodies were cremated by the police only after offical consent and undertaking from their family members and persons accompanying them.

According to sources, Anthem jumped off the hotel’s third floor in an apparent suicide bid. Anthem’s guide arranged an ambulance and rushed him to the district headquarters hospital (DHH).

However, he was declared dead after some time at the hospital. Anthem jumped off the hotel’s third floor soon after attending the funeral of Russian tourist Vladimir Videnov, who had been found dead inside the hotel room on Thursday (December 22), sources said.

“The back-to-back deaths of two Russian tourists in Rayagada town have become a matter of concern for the district administration,” sources said.

Four Russian tourists, including Vladimir and Anthem, had checked into the hotel on December 21 after visiting Daringbadi in the Kandhamal district.
