Bali police have dismissed speculation that Ukrainian blogger Yeva Mishalova, the girlfriend of the victim Igor Komarov, was involved in his kidnapping and murder.

According to Indonesian media citing Bali police sources, Mishalova was only summoned for questioning as a witness to help investigators reconstruct the events of the incident. Authorities did not release the woman’s full name, using only the initials EM, but stated that she was Komarov’s girlfriend.
Recently, unverified information has circulated online suggesting Mishalova may be involved in the case and has been arrested by the police. However, Bali police have confirmed that there is no evidence to suggest the blogger participated in planning or carrying out the murder.
“Currently, no legal action is being taken against EM. We have not arrested or detained the alleged girlfriend of the victim,” said Arya Sandy, a spokesperson for the Bali police.
Previously, several videos circulated online showing Komarov with numerous bruises on his face, claiming he had been kidnapped. In the videos, the man said his kidnappers demanded a $10 million ransom, threatening to kill him if the money wasn’t paid. According to Russian and Ukrainian media sources, Komarov is the son of Sergei Komarov, a notorious crime boss in the city of Kramatorsk.
There are also unverified reports that another Ukrainian citizen, Yermak Petrovskyi, was kidnapped along with Komarov but escaped. In another video, Komarov says that he and Petrovskyi used to run telephone scam centers.
Later, dismembered body parts were discovered on a beach in Bali. DNA testing confirmed the victim was Komarov. Because the body parts had already begun to decompose when found, investigators believe the man had died approximately three days earlier, around February 23rd.
Bali police said six foreigners, including Russian and Ukrainian citizens, are suspected of being involved in the case. Of these, four have left Indonesia, while two are believed to still be in the country.
