Mikhail Watford’s body was found by a gardener Monday on his luxury Virginia Water property in Surrey, in southeastern Britain.
The 66-year-old father of three, had made his fortune with oil refineries in Ukraine and then set up a real estate company in Britain.
Local police said they were investigating the death with “high seriousness” amid suspicions that he may have been a target of Moscow, as has been the case with several suspected Russian deaths in Britain.
A family friend said: “His mental state may have been affected by the situation in Ukraine. “Certainly the timing of his death and the Russian military attack on Ukraine are not coincidental.”
Another contributor, according to the British tabloid The Sun, said: “His death raises many questions, so it is natural for speculation to arise.”
After coming to England in the 2000s, Mr. Watford had changed his name, from Tolstosheia as it was formerly called.
He lived with his wife from Estonia, Jane, their two children and a son he had from his first marriage, in the villa worth more than 20 million euros.
The couple had recently appeared in a media article where they said they were selling their house, where they also talked about the extravagant lifestyle with private jets and rural properties in British villages.
The Russian mother of the deceased was living in an apartment next to the family and was at home when her son’s body was found.
One source said: “This is shocking because Mikhail had everything to live for.
“There was a beautiful woman, children and a dream house, it does not make sense.”
Surrey police said they are investigating the incident but so far there are no suspicious circumstances and Mr Watford is believed to have killed himself.
