Denis Alexandrovich Zubov (Russian: Денис Александрович Зубов; 1981 – 20 April 2023) was a Russian serial killer who killed three people in Volgograd Oblast between 2013 and 2014, cutting off reproductive organs post-mortem in order to humiliate his victims. Following a two-year manhunt, Zubov was arrested in 2016, found guilty of all crimes and sentenced to 21 years imprisonment. He was reportedly released from prison in exchange for doing military service during the Russian invasion of Ukraine and was reportedly killed in action during the Battle of Bakhmut in 2023.
