Daily Mail: Russian 'spy' is found dead 'after falling from upper window of Berlin embassy' 

* Kirill Zhalo, 35, found dead outside the Russian embassy in Berlin on October 19 

* Zhalo was found by guards at 7.20am after apparently falling from an upper floor 

* But no cause of death was given because the embassy refused an autopsy, and German prosecutors cannot investigate due to Zhalo's diplomatic status 

* Zhalo is believed to be the son of prominent FSB commander Alexei Zhalo, whose departments have been linked to numerous assassination attempts 

A suspected spy with family ties to Russia's shadowy FSB has been found dead outside the country's embassy in Berlin. 

Kirill Zhalo, 35, was found lifeless outside the building in central Berlin at 7.20am on October 19 by German guards assigned to protect it. 

Medics were called but were unable to revive him. 

Zhalo appears to have fallen to his death from the upper floor of the building, German newspaper Der Spiegel said, as it broke news of the death today.
