What Memorial documented

Memorial identifies Salavdi Zakiev as one of the residents shot after coming out of a cellar during the search operation. Its narrative says soldiers had thrown a grenade into the cellar before he emerged, and he was then shot in the courtyard.

Limits of the evidence

The reported circumstances come from the investigation’s reconstruction of eyewitness statements, rather than a criminal conviction naming a perpetrator.

This page is a concise, source-attributed memorial record. It is not an independent criminal verdict or proof of an identified soldier’s personal guilt. Romanization is editorial; original Cyrillic and the source’s stated uncertainties are retained.
