KIEV, March 23. /TASS/. The Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office confirmed on Thursday that the killer of former Russian State Duma member Denis Voronenkov had died of wounds in a hospital. "The killer of former State Duma deputy Denis Voronenkov died in a hospital," spokeswoman for the Prosecutor General Larisa Sargan wrote on her Twitter page.

The killer’s death was earlier reported by some Ukrainian outlets. Specifically, Public Television said "the doctors conducted four surgeries" on the killer and "made an open heart massage and managed to start it but this already didn’t help due to its long stoppage." According to the police, Voronenkov was killed by a man born in 1988 who had a Ukrainian passport. The killer was known to the Dnepr police for committing crimes stipulated by articles 205 and 209 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code (fictitious entrepreneurship and legalization of criminally-obtained incomes). Voronenkov, a former State Duma deputy who emigrated to Ukraine in October 2016, was killed in a shootout near the entrance to the Premier Palace hotel in Kiev on Thursday.
