Limits of the record

The listed death date of 8 April differs from the body-discovery date of 9 April; neither establishes the exact moment or manner of death.

This is a source-based memorial profile, not a judicial determination of individual criminal guilt. Where dates, circumstances or family relationships are uncertain, they remain explicitly marked as such.
