Yegor Sergeyevich Sosonow ( Russian Егор Сергеевич Созонов , born May 26 . Jul / 7. June  1879 greg. In Petrovskoye, district Urzhum , Vyatka Governorate , † November 27 jul. / 10. December  1910 greg. In Gorny Serentui in the area about the Nertschinski Sawod ( Nertschinsker Werk)) was a Russian Social Revolutionary who murdered the Russian Interior Minister von Plehwe on July 28, 1904 - on the eve of the 1905 revolution - during the reign of Nicholas II .

Life

Yegor, the son of the old-believing farmer and later timber merchant Sergei Lasarewitsch Sosonow and his wife Akilina Loginowna, graduated from the boys' grammar school in Ufa and then studied law at the Lomonosov University in Moscow , and then turned to medicine. Later he wanted to practice as a country doctor.

When news of the fate of the 183 demonstrating Kiev students, who had been drafted as punishment by Minister Bogolepov, penetrated to Moscow in 1900, Yegor protested and was put in Butyrka prison , where he got to know detained revolutionaries and their tactics. The Moscow university management de-registered Yegor in April 1901 and sent him back to Ufa. There he joined the United Social Democrats and Social Revolutionaries of the Urals . The police went to Yegor in March 1902 in his apartment. Yegor began to eat treacherous papers straight away, but he was sent to Ufa prison anyway. In the heat of the moment, Yegor had accidentally consumed safer papers. He was exiled to Yakutia via the intermediate station in Samara . On the way to these East Siberian regions, Jegor managed to escape to Switzerland . In Western Europe, he joined the struggle organization of the Social Revolutionaries , the militant offshoot of this party.

The Russian interior minister was to be killed next. Yevno Asef prepared Dora Brilliant , Alexei Pokotilow, Maximilijan Schweizer, Iwan Kaljajew and Yegor Sosonow for the attack in Paris . The terrorists traveled to Russia with forged passports in the spring of 1904. Attempts to assassinate on March 18, 25 and April 1 failed. On the morning of July 28, 1904, Yegor Sosonov threw a bomb into the interior minister's carriage on Ismailovsky Prospect in Petersburg. Von Plehwe died on the spot. His coachman and horses did not survive. The bodyguard on the bike was seriously injured. Two spare men bombers Kaljajew and Sikorski, were not used. Yegor Sosonov, seriously injured, was arrested at the scene and sentenced to life in katorga . The condemned man's path led through the Schliisselburg Fortress to Butyrka prison and finally to the Nerchinsk Katorga.

At the end of 1907, Yegor Sosonow was transferred to the Gorny Serentui prison. A political prisoner should be flogged for a trifle. In protest, Yegor Sosonow took poison on December 10, 1910, died and was initially buried at the place of death. Later his remains were transferred to the Sergius cemetery in Ufa.

family

Yegor Sosonow was married to Pallada Olimpowna Bogdanowa-Belskaja and had two sons: Orest Bogdanow (1905-1998) and Erast Bogdanow (1905-19953).
