Abstract

On 12 March 1933, six British engineers of Metropolitan-Vickers Ltd were suddenly arrested in Moscow and their office there raided by the Soviet secret police. Considerable anxiety was felt in Britain, as on 15 March the secret police were given expanded powers to impose all forms of punishment without trial and the news from Moscow was that some 35 Soviet officials had already been shot without being tried. A public trial began on 12 April, but there seemed to be no hope of the engineers getting a fair and impartial hearing before the Soviet courts.
