Mirko Alida Teonovna
Estonian, resident of Leningrad. Arrested (1941), died in Tomsk prison (1943)
Биографические сведения изложены на основании дела з/к Томской тюрьмы № 46551 и данных Книги памяти Иркутской области.
Довоенный период и личные данные:
1899 год: В Эстляндской губернии, на станции Метик, родилась Алида Теоновна Мирко. [Возможно, это искаженное написание, и имеется ввиду населенный пункт Metsiku (Metsiku jaam), расположенный на севере Эстонии].
Происходила из крестьян, имела низшее педагогическое образование.
1917 – 1937 годы: Состояла в ВКП(б), из которой была исключена в 1937 году.
18 ноября 1937 г. — арестован ее муж Мирко Август Иванович, приговоренный к ВМН и расстрелянный в Иркутске через год — 19 ноября 1938. Возможно, арест мужа и послужил причиной ее исключения из ВКП(б).
Летом 1941 года проживала в Ленинграде по адресу: улица Скороходова, дом 18, комната 55. Вместе с ней проживали ее мать, Пралиц Елена Петровна (1873 г.р.), и дочь, Мирко Злата Августовна (1924 г.р.). Отец умер в 1919 году. До ареста работала продавцом в «Тресте хлебопечения», хотя по специальности была педагогом-дошкольником.
Арест и следствие в Ленинграде (1941 год):
28 августа 1941 г.: Младший лейтенант госбезопасности Ковалев из 2-го Отделения КРО УНКВД по Ленинградской области вынес постановление об избрании меры пресечения для Мирко А. Т. — содержание под стражей. Основанием послужили материалы, изобличающие ее в преступлениях по статьям 58-1а ("Измена Родине") и 58-10 ч.2 ("Антисоветская агитация") УК РСФСР. Постановление было санкционировано заместителем начальника УНКВД ЛО и г. Ленинграда ст. майором ГБ Огольцовым.
29 августа 1941 г.: Мирко А.Т. была официально арестована на основании ордера №1158. В этот же день она была ознакомлена с постановлением об аресте, что подтверждается ее подписью. Поступило распоряжение содержать арестованную Мирко А.Т. во внутренней тюрьме УНКВД по Ленинградской области на общих основаниях.
8 сентября 1941 г.: Были проведены дактилоскопия и фотографирование арестованной.
9 сентября 1941 г. В анкете, заполненной во внутренней тюрьме УНКВД по Ленинградской области, дата ареста указана — 9 сентября 1941 года. Срок отбывания наказания в будущем будет отсчитываться именно с этой даты.
Этап и содержание в Сибири (1941-1942 годы):
14 ноября 1941 г.: Мирко А.Т. прибыла в тюрьму № 3 города Томска, который на тот момент входил в состав Новосибирской области. Была заведена камерная карточка.
22 января 1942 г.: Из УНКВД по Новосибирской области (НСО) в тюрьму №3 г. Томска поступило распоряжение перечислить Мирко А.Т. для дальнейшего содержания под стражей по решению Особого Совещания.
20 мая 1942 г.: Особое Совещание при НКВД СССР в Москве заочно рассмотрело дело № 2917/2202. По первоначальным тяжелым обвинениям в измене Родине приговор вынесен не был. Мирко Алиду Теоновну признали виновной «за антисоветские высказывания» и постановили сослать в Новосибирскую область на три года.
5 июля 1942 г.: Инспектор учета Томской тюрьмы № 3 объявил Мирко А. Т. постановление Особого Совещания, с которым она ознакомилась под подпись.
Июнь – Ноябрь 1942 г.: Руководство УНКВД НСО начало процедуру отправки Мирко А.Т. к месту отбытия ссылки — в Нарымский окротдел НКВД (г. Колпашево). Были направлены соответствующие распоряжения.
2 декабря 1942 г.: Из Новосибирска в Томск ушло вторичное требование срочно исполнить распоряжение об этапировании осужденной, так как предыдущее не было выполнено.
Болезнь и смерть (1942-1943 годы):
10 декабря 1942 г.: Начальник тюрьмы № 3 лейтенант Божок официально уведомил Новосибирск, что этапировать заключенную Мирко А.Т. невозможно, так как она находится на лечении в тюремной больнице.
8 мая 1943 г.: Мирко Алида Теоновна скончалась в больнице тюрьмы №3 г. Томска, не отбыв до конца срок ссылки и так и не будучи этапирована к месту ее отбывания.
13 мая 1943 г.: В УНКВД НСО в Новосибирск был направлен акт о смерти заключенной для приобщения к делу. На обложке дела появилась рукописная пометка красным карандашом: "Умер 1943 г".
29 декабря 1961 г.: реабилитирована посмертно Президиумом Ленинградского городского суда.
