Mariet Zubayeva

Staropromyslovski victim record STA-K028 · HRW numbered entry 28

Recorded age: 43 · Date of death / discovery: Night of 20 January, found 21 January · Place: Zubayev family home, Grozny · Evidence status: Body observed by two neighbours

Documented circumstances

Mariet was another daughter of Said and Zeinap Zubayev. Two witnesses interviewed separately by Human Rights Watch found her among eight dead family members in the courtyard on 21 January. Their account describes signs of gunfire, looting and fire damage at the house.

Limits of the evidence

The source does not establish Mariet’s individual final movements or identify an individual perpetrator.

This memorial is based on the original Human Rights Watch witness investigation and its separately numbered list of 38 reported victims. It is not an independent criminal judgment. Where the source relies on a body discovery or secondhand report rather than an eyewitness to the shooting, that distinction is preserved. Missing surnames and photographs are not invented.
