Ukrainian Agent Retracts Confession Over Killing of Monaco Bomb Suspect Found Dead Near Kyiv

The Straits Times—A Ukrainian security officer accused of killing a suspect linked to a bomb attack in Monaco retracted an earlier confession, deepening a murky case that has embarrassed Ukrainian security services. The suspect in the Monaco bombing was found dead near Kyiv, and Ukrainian authorities initially arrested one of their own agents in connection with the killing, who subsequently changed their account. A Ukrainian court separately jailed two other men accused of involvement in the killing. The Monaco bomb attack itself remains under active investigation by European authorities, and the web of Ukrainian suspects has complicated the probe.
