It is “unlikely” that Finns executed Soviet prisoners of war in Sandarmorkh, Memorial said.

No need to execute them. Just stop feeding them.

One of the most poignant stories I've read is of a Soviet prisoner exchange during the Finnish-Russian war...the Finnish prisoner returned to his countrymen greeted by cheers, beer, and food. The Soviet one was scolded by his 'comrades' for being stupid enough to get caught in the first place and punished with hard labor. He was treated worse in his own country than as a prisoner of Finland.
