Unit 29155—Yasha’s Group Rides Again

Like in the 1920s and 1930s, beginning around 2005 a series of mysterious deaths (some “natural” and some overt murders) began to be noticed once again in Europe. While the Russians and Putin were instant suspects, there were cases similar to those of Pavlova, Romzha, and others long before, with no physical evidence directly linking Putin to the crimes and no apprehended suspects. History does in fact sometimes repeat itself. And like ghosts of Stalin, Yasha, and Sergey Spigelglas, Putin has unleashed a new gang of killers on the world. They are just as heartless, though not nearly as competent as Yasha’s Gang.

Recently, an incompetent series of mishaps exposed for the first time the existence of a previously unknown poisoning team in Russia called “Unit 29155.”42 Commanded by a general, media reports name its most important killer as Colonel Anatoliy Chepiga, a master of disguises, new occupations, and aliases. The unit includes a doctor and poison specialist.43 Based on the eastern edge of Moscow, Unit 29155 casts a wide net of murder. Returning to its Yasha Gang roots, Unit 29155 for at least five years actually had its operational headquarters in France. In addition to an unknown number of “natural deaths,” the unit has engaged in open “reprisal” murders in England, sloppy collateral murders of innocent civilians, attempted murders in Bulgaria by rubbing doors and steering wheels with lethal poisons previously unknown in the West, and the attempted murder of high officials as part of a coup in Montenegro. Chepiga uses a changing variety of names, disguises, and occupations—most recently appearing to be a sports nutrition salesman—much like Spigelglas’s assumed identity as a fishmonger long ago. Chepiga’s cold killer eyes remain the same in all the photos and videos of him, also very reminiscent of Sergey Spigelglas. The unit has traveled undercover to eighteen or more countries, but the full account of what they have done and who they have murdered or poisoned is unknown.

They have all received Russia’s highest decorations from Putin, such as the “Hero of Russia” award. These heroes are poor descendants of the Yasha Gang and Sergey Spigelglas in Paris, who would be ashamed of their ineptitude and lack of tradecraft. They’ve botched easy killings and get-aways, childishly post videos together to social media, and brag on the internet about their military decorations. Russian records show the luxurious Western cars they drive and even their opulent homes.44 They are pitiful compared to the true Russian heroes: the brave men and women who fought in World War II.

When confronted with evidence of murders, the Putin regime has deflected blame onto others and spread lies, responding, in the tradition of Stalin, through a mouthpiece. Pravda reports, “It’s a pity it [the unit] doesn’t exist,” and (disclaiming any knowledge of the unit in an article with Chepiga’s picture), claims their travels in Europe were just innocent fun.45 Pravda continues, with shades of Stalin, that British Intelligence was responsible for the poisoning attacks. These are alibis even cruder than the childish fabrications of the 1938 purge trials.
