What happened next on that morning in early August is a matter of speculation. The one fact everyone agrees on is that Klymentyev vanished. His family reported him missing the next day and Kharkiv police opened a murder inquiry. His friends are convinced he is dead, though so far there is no body. On 17 August a boy discovered his mobile phone and keys in a small rubber boat floating in a rural reservoir.
The Guardian's article on the Vasyl Klymentyev whose been missing since August. There is also a bit about Channel 5 and TVi, who have lost their licenses. RFE/RL has more information on the missing journalist, including one possible motive for his disappearance.
On August 9, Klymentyev and Matviyenko took photographs of mansions belonging to regional Tax Chief Stanislav Denisyuk and three other local officials, including a former Ukrainian Security Service officer. They intended to use the pictures in an article to be published in the next issue of the paper.
Matviyenko met Klymentyev on August 11 to discuss the article and the photos. Later the same day, Matviyenko says, he was not able to reach Klymentyev by phone.
