On 20 April 2007, Shamil Umakhanovich Odamanov[a] and another unidentified man were murdered by members of a Russian neo-Nazi group. On 12 August 2007, a video depicting their deaths called Execution of a Tajik and a Dagestani (Russian: Казнь таджика и дагестанца, romanized: Kazn' tadzhika i dagestantsa) was posted on the social media site LiveJournal. The beheading video became viral, gaining the nickname The Russian neo-Nazi beheading video. The incident was considered a cold case until 2020, when the Russian government announced that one of the accused (Maxim Martsinkevich) confessed his involvement soon before his death.
