Beslan Martyr?

I remember hearing about a Greek national who was in Beslan when the Muslims attacked and took the students hostage. He was a teacher in the school and was killed while protecting a girl from one of the terrorists. I assume he is Orthodox since more than 90% of Greeks are Orthodox. I've wondered for a while if anyone is going to declare him a martyr and when we will start seeing Icons of him. Does anyone know?

I think a lot of the Beslan victims were Orthodox as it is an Orthodox area.

And, I agree, they will be Glorified, I am sure.
