Incident: UTAir Cargo AN74 near Kupol on Dec 1st 2018, multiple problems

A UTAir Cargo Antonov AN-74-200, registration RA-74013 performing charter freight flight TUM-9742 from Kupol to Magadan (Russia),
was climbing out of Kupol at 370kph (190 KIAS)
when the crew received an overspeed indication although the limit should have been 500kph (257 KIAS)
but had reduced to 345 kph (177 KIAS). :?

The crew levelled off, then spoilers 5 and 6 (right hand wing) deployed,
associated warning lights illuminated and the aircraft entered an uncommanded right roll. :shock:

The crew stabilized the aircraft and descended to 7000 meters
when the crew heard an engine stall
and received indication of a left engine (D-36) failure,
however, all engine indications remained normal. :?

The aircraft returned to Kupol for a safe landing.
