Alexander Sergeyevich Zarudny (Template:Lang-ru, 31 August [O.S. 19 August] 1863 in Tsarskoye Selo, Russia – 30 November 1934 in Leningrad, Soviet Union) was a Russian lawyer and politician. In 1887 he was arrested regarding the assassination of Alexander II of Russia but was released due to lack of evidence. In 1902-1917 he worked as a lawyer. He was an attorney for Menahem Mendel Beilis, a Jew accused of ritual murder in the infamous Beilis trial. In 1917 he was the Minister for Justice in the Russian Provisional Government.[1] After the October Revolution he stopped his political activities and worked as a lawyer in the Soviet Union.
