The Trial of the Sixteen ("Процесс 16-ти" in Russian) was a trial of sixteen members of the Narodnaya Volya in Russian Empire on October 25–30 (November 6–11), 1880.
Members of the Executive Committee of Narodnaya Volya - Aaron Zundelevich, Aleksandr Kvyatkovsky and Stepan Shiryaev - were the principal defendants.
Kvyatkovsky was also incriminated with planning two assassination attempts on the tsar on April 2, 1879 and February 5, 1880.
Shiryaev was also accused of planning to murder the tsar on November 19, 1879.
As a result, Kvyatkovsky and Presnyakov were sentenced to death, four other people - to eternal katorga, 6 other - to 4 to 20 years of katorga, and the remaining four - to Siberian exile.
