Death?

The date of his death in the intro is given as 1942

However the last line of this article puts the year of his death at the hands of the NKVD as 1940

Is it possible he was arrested in 1940 and killed later?

Or is just a case of dates being wrong? So which one is right?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.130.122.116 (talk) 15:10, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He was arrested in 1940 and executed in 1942 in a Soviet prison camp. Other refs included in the article are clear about it. If it's not clear in the article itself, perhaps it should be pointed out better?--Termer (talk) 17:20, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updated the article, hope it's more clear.--Termer (talk) 17:31, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
