Viktor Yerin began his career in Soviet [[Security agency|security forces]] ([[police]]). Working in [[Tatarstan]] police, he participated in investigating especially dangerous criminal bands. Since 1991 Yerin served as the first deputy minister of interior of the [[RSFSR]]. In January 1992, he became [[Russia]]'s [[Ministry of Internal Affairs (Russia)|interior minister]]. In November 1992, he led an operative staff for re-establishing constitutional order in the Ossetian-Ingush conflict region. From December 1994 to January 1995 he was in charge of the activities of the Russian interior ministry troops in [[Chechnya]]. On 30 June 1995, after the failed operation to free hostages taken by Chechen terrorists in Budyonnovsk, Yerin had to resign (as did the then-FSB director Stepashin).
