The Christmas Day disaster left 38 dead after the packed passenger plane lost control and smashed into a fireball as it hit the ground.
Reports have been swirling in the days since saying it was shot down by a Russian anti-aircraft missile believed to have been fired from Grozny - the capital of Chechnya.
This has led many to point the finger at Kadyrov for his potential involvement in the fatal festive tragedy.
