DISMEMBERED remains have been found in Bali after a 28-year-old tourist is thought to have been kidnapped in a £7million ransom plot.
Igor Komarov, 28, was riding a motorbike with friends on a steep road in the north of the holiday hotspot island, when a group of men appeared from nowhere.

The unknown attackers seized Igor from Jimbaran, according to his friend Yermak Petrovsky, who managed to escape the terrifying ordeal and contact the police.
After the alleged captors took the tourist – who is from Ukraine – they are said to have demanded £7million from his family.
It’s understood that a graphic video circulated online appearing to show the 28-year-old badly beaten and bruised, begging for his parents to pay the multi-million-pound ransom to his kidnapper.
The unverified video seems to show Igor claiming that his legs and ribs have been broken and that some of his fingers have been cut.

Now, mutilated human body parts have been found on the holiday hotspot island, which officials think may belong to Igor.
Police are working to identify the body parts and conducting DNA testing, including taking a sample from Igor’s mother.
The remains were reportedly in an advanced state of decomposition, with forensic specialists estimating the victim had been dead for more than three days.
Bali Police spokesperson Senior Commissioner Ariasandy said: “It could be [him] but again we cannot speculate, we can’t guess. We must rely on forensic results.”
“We will then match [samples] with the DNA of families who feel their family members are missing, or who reported kidnapping or missing persons, including those we learned yesterday that a foreign national was reported kidnapped.”
He added: “Because it happened to be a kidnapping case, we are investigating all possible things, but we cannot speculate.”
