Fadeev shot himself !

These were the very years when, according to conservative estimates, the number of prisoners exceeded ten million.
When for the first time in the science of law the concept of “active investigation” appeared, and special prosecutors were given a coded message – not to believe in torture, not to accept complaints against them.
When a hurricane of mass extrajudicial executions swept through the northern camps of the East and West. The doomed were stuffed into a cell, but there were so many of them that others, without waiting for an easy death, died standing, and the corpses also stood.
In these very years, cultural parks flourished especially magnificently, fireworks were launched especially often, carousels, attractions and dance floors were especially built. And never in the country did they dance and sing so much as in those years.
And never have the windows been so beautiful, the prices so firm, and the earnings so easy.
“I don’t know another country like this,
Where a man breathes so freely,
Pioneers sang, going on campaigns.
“Everyone is young now in our young beautiful country,” the orchestra thundered during the festivities.
And a lot of people really believed it.
The slogan “Life has become better, comrades, life has become more fun” has become the state truth, the foundation, the axiom of our existence.
For this is how “the most humane person on earth” realized the reality he created for us.
After writing this line, Fadeev shot himself.
