Inner Line
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2021) |
The Inner Line (Russian: Внутренняя Линия) was a secret counter-intelligence branch of the Russian All-Military Union (ROVS), the leading Russian White emigre organization. Gen Alexander Kutepov is credited with setting it up in the mid-1920s.[1]
The Inner Line was severely compromised by OGPU/NKVD penetration.[2] It was seriously discredited after the kidnapping of ROVS chairman Gen Yevgeny Miller by Soviet agents in 1937, followed by disappearance of Miller′s aide and the Inner Line senior operative Nikolai Skoblin, who as an NKVD agent was instrumental in the abduction operation.
