The artist died of a massive heart attack, while he had no congenital heart problems, and he had been feeling well lately.
Arkady Kudryashov, Yuri Shatunov's assistant, told about the results of the autopsy. He said that if there had been something wrong, the artist would not have been allowed to be buried.
Recall that Yuri Shatunov died of a massive heart attack on June 23. He was cremated and buried at Troekurov Cemetery in Moscow.
Kudryashov said that the singer did not suffer from chronic heart problems, but suffered from a stomach ulcer. During an autopsy, he was found to have a fresh plaque, which could be a year to a year and a half old, PROzvezd reports.
The assistant noted that it all happened suddenly, Yuri did not complain about his well-being. It all started with bronchitis, which the singer experienced in a mild form, then a weakness appeared and it was attributed to a long tour, but Shatunov still had no complaints. So the illness was in a latent form, says Kudryashov.
