Abstract: After the coup in October 1917, the Bolsheviks announced the abolition of the former imperial courts and the creation of the “most democratic and just” courts in the world. However, the normative documents on the new judiciary were hastily adopted and were full of contradictions. These documents, which did not meet the requirements of international law, served not the establishment of equality and law and order, but the ideas of class and "revolutionary" struggle. In this way, the judiciary was transformed into a punitive body of Soviet power. This article describes the activities of the revolutionary tribunals established by the Soviet authorities in the territory of the Turkestan ASSR in 1918-1922 on the basis of historical documents. The article also reveals the rise of various crimes among workers in the field and the state of anarchy in the system.
