Evidence[edit]

What evidence was found at the staircase and window from which he fell? Badagnani 23:11, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Safronov was pushed?[edit]

The article currently states that "Safronov was pushed out of the staircase window between the fourth and the fifth floors of his apartment building around 4 p.m. on March 2.". Is there a reference for this? Or is this unfounded specualtion? The references given for the article (those in English at least) do not say that Safronov was pushed. I'm going to change the article to remove this unsourced comment. Malbolge 20:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Photo evidences[edit]

None of Russian sources evidence that he was pushed. See the photos at http://somnenie.narod.ru/drugie/safronov/photos2.html and http://somnenie.narod.ru/drugie/safronov/photos3.html (a trace on the outer window-sill indicating rather that somebody's shoe slided from it). The window is not very "small", one leaf (of the tween) is more than 1 m height and about 0.6 m width (see the photos), but sure lower than the man height. It is always open. You can ask something from mark91999@hotmail.com. Marik2 23:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
