Danil Peredriya, the son-in-law of VKS RF commander Oleksandr Chaiko, was reported to have died in a blast at the Balzi Rossi restaurant in Moscow on 1 September. The agency said it was referring to the same report.

According to the investigation materials, which are cited by Danil Peredriya’s relatives, there is no information about his death; however, the document states that he was buried on the same day, which is why it is unclear how he could have been killed at Balzi Rossi.

Also, the agency provides information about the death of the Russian commander’s son-in-law.

Earlier, the investigators’ conclusion on the case was published. In particular, blogger Anatolii Sharii said that the document about Chaiko’s son-in-law’s death was fake, and that Danil Peredriya was not killed at the time when the blast took place. According to the Russian-language media Verstka, Maria also said that she had never seen the official documents; she added that the official information about the death was not confirmed.

According to the investigation, the man in Moscow was buried on 1 September after being taken from the Balzi Rossi restaurant, which is why it was not possible for him to have been killed by the blast that day. According to official information, he was buried 21 days later. The investigation also says that the Russian authorities have not provided any evidence that the man was killed in the blast.
