1 окт 1905 г. - BIRTH OF KONTRRAZVEDKA

Описание:

It is precisely in the expropriations as well as in the terrorist activity of the
anarchist groups at the beginning of the 20th century that one can
see the origins of the Makhnovist Kontrrazvedka. The acquisition
of finances for anarchist work by means of raids on banks or the
robbing of wealthy capitalists naturally involved elements of intel-
ligence work. Estimating the wealth of a bank or a factory's cash
office, determining the schedule of money deposits, the internal
layouts of buildings, the number of guards, etc. required the carry-
ing out of serious reconnaissance measures. Analogous tasks were
executed by anarchists planning a raid on private capital: apprais-
ing wealth, locating the place where valuables were stored, and
determining the number of servants. The elements of intelligence
work in the preparation of terrorist acts included researching the
targeted individual's daily routine, the visitors received, the numbers
of body guards, plans of the site, and convenient escape routes. In
each instance the recruitment of informers could be an important
part of the plan.
