Source verification

Evidence recorded by Memorial: Wife and neighbour; death certificate no. 11. The source is the 1995 Memorial Samashki investigation, Appendix 3, no. 28.

Limits and editorial note

The source gives a two-day date range and no witnessed shooting sequence. A shared surname does not establish a relationship to other Gadaev entries.

The present text reports findings and witness accounts gathered by Memorial. It is not a judicial finding of an individual’s criminal responsibility. Romanization is editorial; where the source is inconclusive, no details have been invented.
