Editing Sergiusz Piasecki (section)

===Work for the Polish intelligence service===
In early 1920s, Piasecki organized a whole web of Polish agents, covering the area of [[Byelorussian SSR|Soviet Belarus]]. Piasecki was also a smuggler, in order to both earn the money to finance his activities but also to have a cover up for them. Foreign spies as a rule were all executed by the Soviets, while smugglers were only incarcerated for a few years. As he wrote – he smuggled [[cocaine]] to the USSR, taking furs back to Poland.{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}} 

During this period, he served 21 months in Novogrudok prison for his involvement in a clash between two smuggling gangs.<ref name=":0" /> This situation repeated again in 1926, Piasecki was again imprisoned and expelled from service.<ref name=":0" /> After his release from prison, he tried to interest French intelligence in his services and to leave for the [[French Foreign Legion|Foreign Legion]].<ref name=":0" /> After these plans failed, he took up robbery. He was arrested again and sentenced to death by a verdict of the Vilnius Field Court on January 9, 1930.<ref name=":0" /> His former supervisors from the intelligence have sought a reduced fine, and so instead of being executed, Piasecki ended up with 15 years imprisonment.<ref name=":0" /> His stay in the Lida prison was short. As a leader of a rebellion, he was moved to [[Rawicz]].{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}} There, he incited another riot, and was moved to [[Koronowo]] and later to [[Wronki]]. Finally, Piasecki was transferred to the hardest prison in Poland, located in [[Łysa Góra]] near [[Kielce]]. As he was regarded a troublesome
prisoner, he was often kept in isolation ward, where he got sick with [[tuberculosis]].{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}}
