Viktor Ivanovich Ilyukhin is a well-known politician who for a long time was a deputy of the State Duma, representing the interests of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. It was part of its first to fifth convocations. Viktor Ilyukhin, whose cause of death is incomprehensible and not fully understood, was a Counselor of Justice of the second class. His biography and life path is dedicated to this article.
The beginning of the biography
The famous politician Viktor Ilyukhin was born on March 1, 1949 in the small Penza village of Sosnovka, which is located in the Kuznetsk district. After graduating from high school in 1971, he entered the Krupskaya city of Saratov Institute of Law at the Faculty of Law.
Start of work
Victor Ilyukhin began his career at the timber industry farm of his native city. He mastered the first profession of a loader very quickly. And when he was already studying at the institute, in the last courses he began to combine studies with work in the police department. It turned out that being an investigator is very difficult. After graduation, he dramatically advanced in service, becoming a lawyer.
But then it was time for military service and Viktor Ilyukhin, whose biography is eventful, falls into the Pacific Fleet. The year of service in the Navy was remembered by the young man for life. But this military and difficult life in the submarine shipyard not only taught the young man much, but also tempered his character.
Returning to his previous job in 1975, Viktor Ilyukhin, whose photo is in this article, began to climb sharply up the career ladder. At first he was an investigator in the district prosecutor’s office, and soon he was promoted to the post of deputy chief of the investigation department. After that, he became the head of the same department. Before the famous politician joined the CPSU in 1978, he was appointed deputy prosecutor of the Penza region.
Work in the prosecutor's office
For two years, since 1984, Viktor Ilyukhin served as deputy prosecutor, and then was promoted to the prosecutor general of the Soviet Union. In the post of head of the main investigative department, he worked for three years. During this time, Vladimir Ivanovich took part in the disclosure and investigation of various war crimes, among which were high-profile Nazi cases. This greatly influenced him and further strengthened his character and desire to achieve the truth in everything. Viktor Ilyukhin managed to work in the "hot spots" where he led the special groups that were investigating.
Already in the middle of 1989, the famous politician Ilyukhin Viktor Ivanovich, on the recommendation of the Prosecutor General of the Soviet Union, was appointed head of the department, which supervised the observance of laws. At the same time, he became a member of the board of the prosecutor's office, and after a while, an indispensable assistant to Sukharev.
In 1990, he made a loud statement about himself when he opposed a group that was involved in exposing senior officials in Uzbekistan. He attacked Gdlyan and Ivanov with charges that they used illegal investigative actions. Viktor Ivanovich demanded that criminal cases be instituted against these people, but the public nevertheless sided with them. After that, the whole country started talking about him as a reactionary.
But Ilyukhin did not leave his accusatory cases on this and already in 1991 opened a criminal case against the incumbent president. Mikhail Gorbachev was charged with treason, since in September of that year he signed an agreement on the independence of some countries, for example, Estonia and Lithuania. But Nikolai Trubin, who at that time was the prosecutor general of the Soviet Union, closed this case, since it was not Mikhail Gorbachev himself, but the State Council who violated the 1990 law.
And a few days later the career in the procurator was over, as the obstinate communist was fired. After that, Vladimir Ivanovich Ilyukhin worked for some time at Pravda, where he was in charge of the legal department.
Political activity
Having left the prosecutor's office, Vladimir Ivanovich continued his activities. Unable to initiate criminal proceedings himself, he called for them to be opened against several presidents. He accused them of signing the Bialowieza Agreement, which led to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
In the autumn of 1993, as soon as the Supreme Council ceased to exist on the orders of Boris Nikolaevich, Ilyukhin was appointed prosecutor by a resolution of the parliament. In 1994, Vladimir Ivanovich took the post of chairman of the security committee.
Personal life
Vladimir Ivanovich Ilyukhin was married once. His wife, Nadezhda Nikolaevna, successfully built a career as a lawyer. In this marriage two children were born: Catherine and Vladimir.
Death
Unexpectedly for everyone, Viktor Ivanovich died in the family summer house on March 19, 2011. His son still went to school.
Doctors found that death was due to an extensive and protracted heart attack. But despite this, the departure of such a politician as Ilyukhin seemed very strange. He never complained about his heart, so it is possible that in his death there was a political component.
