In February 1944, nearly half a million Chechen and Ingush people were deported from the North Caucasus on the orders of Josef Stalin. They were herded into cattle trucks and sent thousands of miles across the Soviet Union to live in Kazakhstan - tens of thousands died on the way. Witness speaks to a survivor of the deportations, and a member of Stalin's secret police.
