Yeltsin Protected by 'Psychic' KGB

Claiming that "Americans have created radiators of modulated signals, which control people's behavior thousands of kilometers from afar," Pravda.ru reports that former Russian President Boris Yeltsin was protected by a KGB unit who defended against "psychic" attacks.

Yuri Malin, a former KGB officer, tells Pravda that "there was a special department in the structure of Russian secret services to protect top officials from malicious intentions of scientists and extrasensory individuals, who could create devices that were capable of affecting human psychology."

Malin worked as a consultant of Boris Yeltsin's Federal Security Service, the successor to the KGB.

Malin says that Putin does not "take much" interest in the unit.

"There were such people in Boris Yeltsin's team, though. There was a special department, which was dealing with unconventional technologies to manipulate the human mind," he claims.

Malin says the unit was formed when someone found an eavesdropping device in the house of a Russian government official.

"It was actually not a microphone, but a directional antenna. Specialists concluded that the antenna had been installed in the office to exert a psychological influence on the president," he said.

Malin says that in the early 90s there were about 20 institutes which developed a variety of extrasensory devices used by the security forces and others.

During the Yeltsin years, Malin says the Russian goverment spent 500 million rubles on such programs.

Apparently Yeltsin was very much in favor of the efforts.

Malin recalled that security agents "could not let a button of Yeltsin's shirt disappear: it was believed that extrasensory individuals could put the evil eye on the president with the help of any little thing that Yeltsin owned."
