My imprisonment in 1931 in Verhneuralsky political prison of OGPU (KGB) on the case of The Mensheviks Union.

            The public trial in Column Hall of Union House in Moscow  in 1931.
I ( Adrian Fedorovich Timofeev) belonged to the Russian  Party of Socialists-Revolutionaries. It was a major political party in early 20th century in  Russia and a key player in the Russian Revolution. It  won a plurality of the national vote  in Russia's first-ever democratic elections. This election was to the RUSSIAN CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY. This party was defeated and destroyed by the  Bolsheviks.

It was my  second imprisonment.  It was  in  1930-1934.
