Yuriy Fedko, a 61-year-old deputy of the Dnipro City Council, died in the hospital after he and his wife were injured in an explosion in their car.
The death was reported on Facebook by the press service of the "Proposytsia" party, to which Fedko belonged.
The deputy died while receiving medical care.
The police have classified the incident as a terrorist attack and have opened a criminal case. Law enforcement officers are working out three versions: a crime ordered by Russian special services to destabilize the situation in the country, hostile relations between the victim and the alleged perpetrator, and professional activity.
As Apostrophe reported, the car carrying Yuriy Fedko and his wife Angelika exploded in Dnipro on the morning of April 4 .
