The court also deprived him of the rank of lieutenant and the order, and also ordered to pay a fine of one hundred thousand rubles. According to Russian media, Dadaev, recognized by the court as the direct perpetrator of the murder, was sentenced to 20 years, while the prosecution asked him to appoint him a life sentence.

Another four accused, whom the court found to be complicit in the crime, received from 11 to 19 years of the colony. Thus, Anzor Gubashev was sentenced to 19 years in prison, Shadid Gubashev by the age of 16, Temirlan Eskerkhanov to 14 years, and Khamzat Bakhayev to 11 years. All of them will serve their sentence in a strict regime colony.

All four will also have to pay a fine of one hundred thousand rubles each. At the same time, none of the condemned did not admit their guilt, while Shadid Gubashev and Temirlan Eskershanov stated that they did not understand why they were given a term.

The sentence will come into force in 10 days in the event that neither side of it appeals.
