Reports of a decapitated head and scattered remains in Bali are now entwined with an alleged $10M ransom demand and a missing Ukrainian heir.

A decapitated head has been discovered in Bali, believed to have belonged to 28-year-old Igor Komarov, the son of a Ukrainian “criminal kingpin,” according to reports.

How did we get here? It’s a wild ride, so buckle up.

Allegedly, Komarov was kidnapped by a group of men on February 15th while scootering through Bali’s popular tourist area, Jimbaran. It’s purported that the kidnappers found the Ukrainian’s location via social media posts from his girlfriend, fashion influencer Yeva Mishalova. Then, after the capture, they requested a $10 million ransom.

An unverified video surfaced, supposedly showing Komarov beat up and pleading to his father, businessman and alleged “criminal kingpin” Oleksandr “Narik” Petrovsky. The video was circulated on Telegram, with Komarov stating:

“Mummy, Daddy, I beg you, help me please, you stole those ten million, which they ask for, return these ten million please. They already chopped off some of my limbs, I have broken legs [and they] punched [my] rib cage. An infection will start soon. I’m just dying.

“Bring me home, what[ever] is left of me at the moment, please settle with these people, they need ten million dollars, which we stole. As soon as these ten million are received in their accounts, they will immediately let me go to the place where they took me. I beg you, please. Please settle. I’ll give you everything back, I’ll work for it, I will give you everything, please. No gangsters will help you, no cops … Do not communicate with any other people.”

Authorities have yet to authenticate the video.

Body parts – including a severed head, leg, and partial torso – were reportedly found in the Wos River, in Bali’s Ubud District, on February 27th. This has led to speculation that the human remains belonged to Komarov.

“The DNA samples will be compared with those of family members who have reported a missing person or kidnapping, including the foreign national reported earlier,” said police spokesperson Commissioner Ariasandy. “We cannot speculate. All possibilities are being investigated, but conclusions must be based on scientific investigation and forensic results.”

All of this is murky and unconfirmed, at least as of now. So, while it sounds like a wild story, and potentially too insane to be true, that may be the case. It certainly does smell fishy. Nonetheless, multiple media outlets – whether credible or not so much – are reporting on the situation. So, something happened. What, exactly, is unclear at this time.

This is a developing story.
