In February, 28-year-old Igor Komarov was on holiday in Bali with his girlfriend, Yea Mishalova, when he was kidnapped alongside his friend, Alexander.

The abduction took place on February 15 in Jimbaran, but Alexander was able to escape and inform the police that they were looking for a black Toyota and two motorcycles. Police were able to track the vehicles, finding blood at a property, but no Igor.

Then the ransom video emerged, with Igor visibly beaten as he begged for his family’s help in getting him home. He claimed to have been tortured, begging: “Mum, Mum – I beg you, please help me. We stole those $10 million they’re asking you for.”

Body parts, including a severed head, a right leg, upper chest sections, thighs and internal organs, soon washed up on the shores of the Wos River. Authorities cautioned people about jumping to conclusions, but DNA samples later confirmed the identity.

“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 said.

Amid all this was Yea Mishalova, Igor’s influencer girlfriend, who has since turned off her Instagram comments.

Igor Komarov’s girlfriend was posting on the day of the kidnapping

Yea Mishalova is an influencer with 240k followers on Instagram, where she largely posts fashion, lifestyle, and travel content. She also owns a company, Girly Girl Food, which makes syrups for iced coffee.

The day before Igor was kidnapped, Yea had posted a bouquet of flowers he’d given her on Instagram.

She posted about a book on the day of the abduction

On the day Igor was taken, February 15, Yea posted about a book on her Instagram.

She was getting ready at the time and discussed The Twelve Chairs by Ilf and Petrov. The book, a piece of classic satirical Russian literature, is about a former nobleman, a con artist, and a greedy priest trying to get jewels hidden in, you guessed it, 12 chairs.

Later, Yea posted a video of herself posing in front of a fountain. In the caption, she referenced “The bitter truth.”

“Nobody sees me wake up at 6 am. Nobody sees me work late. Nobody sees me work two jobs. Because I don’t do any of that,” she wrote on top of the video.

Then there was a brand deal post

Two days after the incident, Yea posted a collab with the health and wellness brand, Perla Helsa. It was for “sexy water.”

She wrote in the caption: “In fact, I can’t force myself to drink water, and here’s a find – healthy water with electrolytes with magnesium, vitamins and antioxidants, which restores water balance.”

There was an interview a few days later

On February 18, Yea was featured in a joint post with podcast host Vadym Oliynyk. She was on his show talking about what women really want.

Yea has also posted a few things to her Instagram story, getting flowers on one occasion.

Igor Komarov’s girlfriend has yet to comment on his death beyond posting a picture of them on her story.

“I know for sure you’ll see this. My life. I love you,” she wrote at the time.
