Holy Hieromartyr Vladimir Sadovsky was a priest in Semirechye and was shot in 1921.

Until 1912 he served at the church in the village of Lugovskoe, Kopalsk district. In 1912 he was moved to the Cossack settlement of Zaitsevskaya (Chilik), Verny district, Semirechye region. He was shot in 1921, after a sentence confirmed by the regional revolutionary tribunal, based on the charge of "agitation against Soviet power, keeping weapons, failure to present documents". He was glorified by the Jubilee Council of Bishops in the year 2000.
