NKVD head [[N. I. Yezhov]] was imprisoned in Sukhanovka beginning on 10 April 1939 and was interrogated there by the Main Military Procurator, N. P. Afanasyev. His trial took place in the office of the chief of the prison in February 1940, although he was executed in Moscow, on Varsonofevskii Lane, not far from the Lubyanka prison.<ref>Jensen and Petrov, ''Stalin's Loyal Executioner,'' 187.</ref> Yezhov's long-time colleague [[Filipp Goloshchyokin]] was also held under "heavy interrogation" in Sukhanovka for a period of 12 months until he was transferred back to Butyrka, and subsequently to Kuibyshev where he was shot in October 1941.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Jansen and Petrov|title=Stalin's Loyal Executioner|date=2002}}</ref><ref>
Solzhenitsyn wrote that Deputy Minister of State Security [[M. D. Ryumin]] used to personally beat and otherwise torture prisoners in a spacious office at the prison, making certain to cover the nice Persian carpet with a cloth so as not to spatter it with the prisoners' blood.<ref>Solzhenitsyn, ''Gulag Archipelago'', 126.</ref>
