Romanian AF claim on 14 May 1943

I've went through most of the JG claims looking for who shot down a Pe-2 on the 14 May 1943 but all seem to be claimed in the wrong locations. The Pe-2 was a recon. aircraft. It was attacked by two Bf 109 according to the Soviet pilot who survived. JG 52 and JG 3 have no claims for Pe-2 on that day and JG 51's are not in the area. The location of the crash is Novo Astrakhan' (Nova Astrakhan) near Voroshilovograd (now Luhansk). It was possibly a Romanian pilot who got it. Does anyone know?
