In June 1937, based on the testimonies obtained in the dungeons from two workers, priests of the Lyskovo district were arrested, among whom was priest Valentin Ivanovich Nikolsky. He was born in 1885 in the village of Lineva, Bor district of the Nizhny Novgorod province, and served in the village of Trofimovo in the Lyskovo district. He rejected all accusations and did not sign false testimonies against other defendants. On September 21, the NKVD Troika sentenced Fr. Valentin to death by shooting, which was carried out on October 4.
