Two Volgograd security generals decided to highlight Dzerzhinsky's profile on the facade of the regional police building on the eve of the Memorial Day for political prisoners 18+. This material (information) is produced, distributed and (or) sent by a foreign agent of the Internet publication "NOVAYA GAZETA" or relates to the activities of a foreign agent of the online publication "NOVAYA GAZETA". The facade of the building of the Central Interior Directorate of the Volgograd region on the evening of October 28 was illuminated by the profile of Felix Dzerzhinsky. Journalists from the local publication V1 found out whose idea it was to do this on the eve of the annual memorial day for the victims of political repression. Two security generals were behind the idea: the head of the Central Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Volgograd region, Lieutenant General Pavel Gishchenko, and the head of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation for the Volgograd region, Major General Alexander Larin. "This is our history, this is our first people's commissar, this is why his profile appeared in a building occupied by the police and the regional department of the FSB," the police press service told V1. Dzerzhinsky is the founder of the Cheka and head of the NKVD under Lenin and Stalin. Under him the practice of extrajudicial executions of anti-revolutionaries developed. And in Cherpovets they planned to put up a mural depicting the Soviet People's Commissars, including Beria, another head of the NKVD under Stalin. They planned to put Beria on the mural for the services of the people's commissar in the field of industrial development during Beria's time, the Golag was widely deployed - a network of camps with free hard labor for prisoners at the mega construction sites of the young Soviet Union. There is also talk that the monument to Felix Dzerzhinsky, which was destroyed during the fall of the Soviet Union, will soon be returned to Lubyanka Square in Moscow. This idea is approached from different angles. Today, the head of the Human Rights Council, Valery Fadeev, claimed that it would be good to remove the Solovetsky Stone from Lubyanka Square - a place of remembrance where the memory of fallen political prisoners was honored for many years - away from this square - and install it in the Wall of Sorrow, thus showing more "respect" to the monument.
