Avel Safronovich Enukidze.

Avel Safronovich Enukidze (1877 -- 1937), prominent Bolshevik and member of the Soviet Central Committee in Moscow. In 1932, along with Mikhail Kalinin and Vyacheslav Molotov, Enukidze co-signed the infamous "Law of Spikelets". Enukidze had written a book on the history of a famous Bolshevik printing press in the Caucasus which had distributed, throughout Russia, Vladimir Lenin's revolutionary theses during the Czarist period. Soon he was accused of having deliberately diminished Joseph Stalin's contributions to the printing press and the Bolshevik movement in Baku. In July 1935, after suggesting to Stalin that he give up power, Enukidze was called to account before a Central Committee Plenum in Moscow, expelled from the Party immediately, and two years later, arrested, tried, and shot.
