Yanukovych ally Peklushenko in new Ukraine mystery death
A former regional governor has been found dead in Ukraine, the latest in a series of deaths involving allies of deposed President Viktor Yanukovych.
Oleksandr Peklushenko, former head of Zaporizhzhya, had suffered a gunshot wound to the neck and authorities said initial inquiries pointed to suicide.
A member of Ukraine's Party of the Regions, he was being investigated over the dispersal of protesters last year.
Five other officials also died in mysterious circumstances this year.
All of them supposedly took their own lives in the past six weeks

No doubt Western leaders will be pressuring the Ukranian authorities for a clear and transparent investigation of the deaths, much as they did in Moscow after the murder of that Russian politician a week or two ago.
