Memorial to Rubtsov

Rubtsov was killed on the night of 19 January 1971, at the age of 35, in his apartment, the result of a domestic dispute with an aspiring poet Lyudmyla Derbina. The judicial investigation established that the death was violent, occurred as a result of suffocation – mechanical asphyxia from squeezing the neck with her hands.[2][3]
