Oleg you said that it was still 4 people that are most likely too were shot at a checkpoint Krasnyi Partizan.

Oleg: Yes, 2.5 months ago we got a call from Father Dmitry asked for help to take of 4 bodies of our soldiers. We agreed. When we arrived, it was not in the Krasnyi Partizan, and the top Troitsk, near the village is located. it was divided into 2 parts, the demarcation line was not there on both sides of the armed men went. It was a dangerous operation.

Father Dmitry crossed the bridge with another volunteer and went to meet with the rebels and got the 4 bodies. At that time we did not know that they were shot, it turned out later. Medical examiner confirmed that these 4 people were shot at point blank range with a sniper rifle.

Later, a month later, those people who have been with these guys were released. We have agreed to exchange, there was an exchange and they told at the hospital as there was an exchange. There was a girl of 20-21 years and asked the warlord if she could shoot at Ukrainians. He said yes. She executed 4 guys. One of them was lucky, with the surname Stepanov. He was wounded, they thought he was dead, but he survived. On one of the exchanges he was released.

Woman
So you are aware of eight soldiers being shot dead in captivity.

Oleg
We are not experts, it is then we learn from the medical examiner, that these people were shot at point blank range.
