« [Concernant les 26 Commissaires de Bakou, date : 14/09/18] The Askhabad Committee [qui sera le Gouvernement Trans-Caspien menchevik fortement soutenu par les Britanniques] were not at all anxious to take over the prisoners and came and asked my advice. They also sent a wire to their Representative in Meshed, Dokhov, with instructions to try and persuade General Malleson to take over the prisoners and deport them to India. In reply, Malleson explained that it was very difficult to find the necessary guards to send them down to India and suggested that the Trans-Caspian authorities should find some other way of disposing of them. » (p. 120)
