They went to a lot of trouble to make the death look like a heart attack, even somehow having the door locked from the inside as they left.

But it seems like it was immediately obvious to the police that this was a murder, so what was the point of going to all that trouble?

I'd say just to save time and face. If he was found with a bullet through his head or something like that it is not unreasonable that all airports and roads would be closed for a while, but if it looked just like a heart attack the murderers have a bit of extra time to leave the country.
