On October 15, 1959, Soviet KGB agent Bohdan Stashynsky executed the Ukrainian fascist criminal Stephan Bandera by shooting him twice in the face with a sophisticated cyanide pistol at the door of his apartment in Munich.

In a secret espionage operation, KGB agent Stashynsky spent months in Munich surveilling Bandera, who was operating under the false identity of Stefan Popel—as were most Nazis protected by the U.S. and the U.K. after World War II. At that time, Stephan Bandera was an asset in the pay of the CIA and Britain’s MI6; he was protected by the imperialists in West Germany (FRG).

On that October day, the Soviet spy followed Bandera in his car for hours, as he usually did… discovering that Bandera had gone out to run some errands without an escort for the first time in a long while, so Stashynsky got ahead of him and waited for him on the stairs of the apartment building where he lived in Munich, West Germany.

While Bandera was struggling with the lock, the Soviet agent approached him from behind, touched his shoulder, and when Bandera looked at him, shot him twice in the face with a pistol developed by the KGB that fired cyanide spray… The shots hit him squarely in the face; the fascist criminal inhaled the gas, staggered, fell to the ground, and died shortly afterward from cyanide poisoning.

This spectacular espionage operation was planned over the course of months by the legendary Soviet KGB officer Georgy Sannikov, who organized a veritable hunt for Ukrainian Nazi criminals from the OUN-UPA, including the criminal Stepan Bandera and Bandera’s right-hand man, Lev Rebet, who had been executed in the same manner years earlier in 1957, also by Stashynsky, using the same special cyanide-loaded weapon.

The cyanide pistol specially created by the KGB and used to kill Bandera was a cylindrical aluminum device—a sort of compact aerosol gun that could be concealed even inside a rolled-up newspaper—which, when triggered, it would break capsules containing liquid cyanide and release a cloud of gas that left no bullet wound and was intended to simulate a heart attack.

    Tradecraft was good. The agent defected (cuz his pregnant girlfriend was east German). He admitted to killing two people but the CIA didn’t believe him since one of the deaths hadn’t arose suspicion.

    “The CIA was suspicious of Stashynsky, who was flown to Frankfurt for interrogation and doubtful of his claims that he had assassinated Rebet and Bandera. The CIA was unaware that Rebet had been murdered, and Stashynsky’s account of his assassination of Bandera was inconsistent with what the U.S. knew of his death. The CIA had concluded that Bandera had been poisoned by someone close to him, and Stashynsky’s claim of shooting him with a poison spray gun seemed farfetched. They concluded that Stashynsky “would not be valuable operationally as a double agent, that he was not a bona fide defector and the individual he purported to be.”[4] After three weeks, the CIA – believing Stashynsky to be useless – handed him over to West German authorities, who now began to investigate him for the two murders. At first, the West German police were also suspicious of his stories, but after interrogation and visits to the two murder sites, where Stashynsky re-enacted the killings, authorities determined that Stashynsky was telling the truth” -Wiki
