Alcoholic beverages in the room, no farewell note, reservations in hotels of other cities, and a rented car. New elements are added to the death of Konstantin Koltsov, the former ice hockey champion found lifeless on Monday, March 18, in a hotel in Miami. Although the hypothesis of suicide is currently the most accredited by investigators, statements by the ex-wife Julija Mikhailova could open initially excluded tracks.

The mystery surrounding the death of Konstantin Koltsov continues. Considered not suspicious by law enforcement, his disappearance is causing discussion in media around the world.

A fact, however, that does not convince the ex-wife Julija Mikhailova. According to what was reported by the DailyMail, the woman indeed gave an interview to a Belarusian newspaper, providing a new version of the story and revealing unpublished details. Among these, Koltsov's condition at the time of the fall: 'He was probably very drunk. Empty bottles of alcohol were found in the room where Konstantin was staying. There was a balcony overlooking the ocean, Konstantin probably didn't realize what he was doing.' In addition to the presence of bottles, another element would have made Julija Mikhailova suspicious. Having entered her ex-husband's computer, the woman indeed found travel bookings and car rentals: 'We still have the old family computer with Konstantin's email. I knew the passwords and managed to open some emails. Konstantin had also booked apartments in another location and had already paid for everything. He had also rented a car for a long time. Konstantin had no intention of dying. Everything, of course, can go to your head, but there was no signal.' The police, at the moment, do not share the same opinion, having excluded all other leads with a press release: 'According to what was reported by investigators on Monday, March 18, 2024, approximately at 12:39 in the morning, the police and fire department of Bal Harbour were called to the St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort at 9703 Collins Avenue for a man who had thrown himself from the balcony of his room. The homicide section of the Miami-Dade Police Department took charge of the investigation of the apparent suicide of Mr. Konstantin Koltsov, born on March 17, 1981. The death is not considered suspicious.' Meanwhile, Sabalenka trains. With her at the time of death, the girlfriend and tennis star Aryna Sabalenka decided to take part in the Miami 1000 tournament, without, however, entertaining any relationship with the media. Therefore, no statements during the event and in press conferences, both pre and post-match. The athlete will take the field on Friday, March 22. A fact, this, that has caused much discussion on social media. Many, in fact, the criticisms of the tennis player number 2 of the ATP, considered by many 'cold' and overall insensitive. Overwhelmed by a real wave of hate, Aryna Sabalenka was able to count on the support of some fans, who defended the athlete and her choice to play on Friday.
