Three powerful arguments against killing a group of tourists by a group of other people:
1. The dead have no gunshot or stab wounds.
2. Two out of nine participants suffered major injuries (rib injuries). Such an effort cannot be applied by a person or a group of persons.
Two more participants died from freezing. They were not subjected to physical force causing injury.
3. Professionals from military unit 6602, engaged in the search for fugitive prisoners and local foresters, did not determine that, in addition to the Dyatlov group, there are traces of movement to the pass and from it of some other group .. Traces of the Dyatlov group and their camps were easily found. Traces of movement and parking of the other group were not found.
..
All three arguments together are powerful evidence of the non-involvement of suspected prisoners, poachers, miners, shamans, etc.
The above is mistaken.
1. The dead had no knife cuts or bullet wounds, because that would have proved that the nine had been murdered. Special police forces like the KGB are experts in making a killing look like an "accident," a "suicide" or "natural death." If the orchestrators of the killing wanted to avoid political unrest from the killings, it was imperative to kill them in such a way as to make it look like an accident.
2. The assumption that the crushed rib cages could not be caused by human attack is terribly mistaken. On the contrary, I have learned these very techiques which were likely used: Powerful elbow strikes from a trained close combat expert. I was also told that police forces in several countries use elbow strikes against the rib cage in order to forcefully incapacitate a person. My sensei Alain Sailly demonstrated and explained this use of elbow strikes.
3. The killings took place during the night between February 1 and February 2. The first search and rescue teams did not arrive at the area until February 26. The attackers almost certainly used skis, after a likely landing of a helicopter nearby. After almost one month, ski tracks would disappear partly or entirely. So it is not at all strange that traces of others were not found. That is what could be expected.
The bodies do not lie, and the injuries all indicate a carefully planned murder executed in such a way as to make it look like an accident.
The Dyatlov Pass tragedy was a murder, which in all likelihood was orchestrated and performed by the Soviet state.
Most significantly, the case was cut short - it was dictated from above that the tragedy must be said to be due to an accident:

It is all too clear, as if the injuries were not sufficiently telling.
