Anna Muhamedow
Soviet politician (1900–1938)
Anna Muhamedow[a] (1900–1938) was the acting first secretary of the Communist Party of the Turkmen SSR immediately following Yakov Popok's resignation due to ill health on 15 April 1937. She served as the sixth first secretary of the Turkmen Communist Party.
Her term lasted six months until, Joseph Stalin selected Yakov Chubin to succeed Popok.
In 1937, Stalin sent a telegram to Muhamedow, authorising the arrest of all Afghan citizens.[1]
She was arrested in October 1937 amid the Great Purge[2] and shot a year later. She was posthumously rehabilitated in 1956.
