Lenin

The findings of the committee of inquiry into the case of the
agent provocateur Malinovsky indicate that the following fact
has been established:

Both Junkovsky and Rodzyanko knew , not later than May
7, 1914, that Malinovsky was an agent provocateur. [1]

Neither of the two leaders warned the political parties in the Duma, primarily the Bolsheviks, of the
agent provocateur operating in their midst!!

Isn’t that a crime?

How can Junkovsky and Rodzyanko be tolerated after that
among honest citizens?

Let all political parties think it over, and let them voice
their opinion!

Notes:
[1]
Junkovsky, tsarist Deputy Minister of the Interior, was informed
in 1914 that Malinovsky, Deputy to the Fourth Duma, was an
agent provocateur. He conveyed the information to Rodzyanko,
Chairman of the Fourth Duma, who pledged his “honour” that he
would not divulge the secret. The two decided to remove
Malinovsky from the Duma, doing it, however, in such a way as “not
to expose either the Duma or the Ministers to scandal”. Malinovsky
resigned as Deputy and left Russia with the aid of the police. He
was exposed in 1917, on the strength of evidence derived from the
Police Department archives. In 1918 he was tried by decision
of the Soviet Government and was shot under the sentence of
the Revolutionary Tribunal.
