How did they die and what happened to their bodies?

The capsule landed in Kazakhstan with three dead bodies in it. They were buried.

They died of asphyxiation when the cabin depressurized. When the capsule was recovered they were dead and efforts to resuscitate them were unsuccessful.

So they must've been forced to let the air out of their lungs out, or rupture of lungs? Terrible way to die, seeing life get sucked out of you and your mates

A valve opened and let all the air out.

One of them had a heart monitor on him.

The estimate was they had 13 seconds of useful consciousness and were dead within a minute.

Their bodies landed in the USSR 21 minutes later.
