Again, I ask:

Why lie about it?

When you have a hammer in hand, everything looks like a nail.

When selling a lie is the skill an org has put the most XP in, that's what they seek to do first.

Also, I see some group of competitors finding out that the guy had some plan to get on top and decided to off him first.

I don't think you understand this analogy. There is a nail. You're suggesting they're driving the nail into the wrong board on purpose for no reason.

Let's go by: Because they didn't learn to use a screw driver properly, they went with the hammer.

Also, alternatively, if the "competitor's job" assumption is correct, then of course they want to keep the actual actors out of the investigation and away from media.
