Please… give them the money: In a short video sent to his family, Igor Komarov appeared exhausted as he pleaded with his parents to pay the $10 million ransom demanded by his kidnappers in Bali.

Authorities said the footage is now crucial evidence in the investigation. But the suspect’s final words have left investigators puzzled

Disturbing update on the severed head and butchered body parts that washed up on a Bali beach – after mutilated tourist had begged for his life in haunting ransom video

The severed head and body parts discovered on a beach in Bali have been confirmed as an identical DNA match to a Ukrainian tourist who was kidnapped and last seen pleading for his life in a ransom video.

Igor Komarov, 28, was allegedly taken by a group of men while on a scooter in Jimbaran, Badung on February 15.

Last week, human remains were discovered at the mouth of Wos River in Bali’s lower east coast, which police said had an up to 80 per cent similarity with Mr Komarov.

Officers said they found a head, right leg, upper chest sections, thighs and internal organs from someone who had died three days prior.

On Friday, authorities confirmed the body parts were identical to Mr Komarov after forensic evidence was compared with samples from his parents.

‘DNA tests have been conducted by the police forensic laboratory in Jakarta into six samples we got from the body parts,’ Bali Police Senior Commissioner Ariasandy said.

This included samples of a molar tooth, a collarbone, a fragment of the thigh bone (femur), a rib bone, a toe bone and a fragment of the shin bone.

‘The DNA tests match with the DNA sample from [Mr Komarov’s] mother. Based on (this), we found that the body parts (were) identical to the victim.’

Bali Police Senior Commissioner Ariasandy has now confirmed the DNA matched that of Mr Komarov’s mother

The day before he went missing, the tattooed Ukrainian was seen posing beside his girlfriend, glamorous influencer Yeva Mishalova in loved-up social media posts.

‘F*** 14 February, love you everyday,’ she captioned the photo, which was shared to her almost 200,000 followers on Valentine’s Day.

Officials have since suggested the couple’s romantic posts may have revealed their location to the kidnappers.

After his abduction, a haunting video emerged online showing a bruised and tearful Mr Komarov begging his parents for help.

He appeared to be missing a hand and had two black eyes.

‘They already chopped off some of my limbs, I have broken legs and punched ribcage. I’m already on meds, I already have no limbs,’ he said through tears.

‘Mummy, Daddy, I beg you, help me please, you stole those ten million, which they ask for, return these ten million please.

‘An infection will start soon. I’m just dying… I ask you very much, this is a very serious organisation, please help me, no one can find me, neither mafiosos, no one.

He asked his parents to pay his kidnappers US$10million

‘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.’

There has been no confirmation from Balinese investigators regarding the identity of the kidnappers. The Daily Mail has not been able to verify the original video.

During police investigations into Mr Komarov’s disappearance, GPS data from a rented minibus led investigators to a villa in Tabanan, where they suspect the ‘ransom’ video was recorded.

Senior Commissioner Ariasandy said blood found in the villa and the minibus was also identical to Mr Komarov’s DNA.

Detectives are also understood to have found a phone and bag belonging to Mr Komarov at the villa.

A Nigerian man, referred to as ‘CH’, was arrested on Monday in West Nusa Tenggara after allegedly renting the car from which police found the GPS data.

He allegedly also used a fake Belgian passport.

But the senior commissioner said he was ‘not directly involved in the [alleged] kidnapping’.

Police said they continue to hunt for six other suspects – identified last week as RM, BK, AS, VN, SM, and DH – four of whom are believed to have fled Bali.
