Question: Who was the surgeon's son turned spy sent to St Petersburg, Russia's second largert city?
Context: Lieutenant Colonel John Dymoke Scale DSO, OBE (born 27th December 1882) was a MI6 (SIS) agent, originally from Merthyr Tydfil in Glamorgan.  He was involved in a British propaganda unit called the Anglo-Russian Commission in St Petersburg, where his responsibilities included running Mohammed Beck Hadjetlaché.  Scale served in the British Indian Army and was first sent to Russia in 1912.  He qualified as a Russian translator in 1913 and rejoined the 87th Punjabis in 1914.  In 1916, Scale served with Stephen Alley and Oswald Rayner under Mansfield Cumming at the time of the murder of Grigori Rasputin.  Whilst a Captain in St Petersburg, in the weeks leading up to the killing, Scale is recorded as having met with Oswald Rayner and Felix Yusupov in the diary of their chauffeur, William Compton.  Several other books and documentaries have claimed Scale's involvement in Rasputin's death, or even alleged that Scale commanded Rayner to fatally shoot him.  A letter from Alley to Scale provides the best evidence of British Intelligence involvement in the murder and torture that reads : The St Petersburg Police Department (SPPD) provides crime prevention and public safety services for the city of St Petersburg, Florida.  The department was created in 1903.  The St. Petersburg Police Department has an authorized strength of 550 sworn officers and 212 civilian support staff.  The department serves the fifth largest city in the state of Florida, with a population of 250,000.  The St. Petersburg Police Department is one of over 1,000 law enforcement agencies in the United States accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA).  Anthony Holloway is the chief of police. Jean-Claude-Hippolyte Méhée de La Touche (1762-1826) was the son of a surgeon in Meaux.  Destined to succeed his father, he nevertheless left his home for Paris when he was 12, and ended up in the Bicêtre Prison.  He was released at the coronation of Louis XVI of France in 1774, but in 1776, after the death of his parents, Méhée was again imprisoned in the Bicêtre.  He escaped when he was sent to Brest to serve on the French fleet.  He returned to Paris after the French Revolution, and was sent to Saint Petersburg as a spy under the name "Chevalier de La Touche" by Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, comte de Mirabeau and Gilbert du Motier, marquis de Lafayette.  He was soon uncovered and was sent out of Russia in March 1791.  His next appointment as a spy was in Poland, where he established the "Gazette de Varsovie", a French newspaper in Warsaw.  Again his role as a spy was discovered, and he was banished from Poland as well. The Miss V of the title is Vera Marova, a Soviet spy sent to Paris to impersonate her lookalike, a German spy recently liquidated by the French Resistance.  As with other, better-known American films produced in the midst of World War II like "Mission to Moscow" and "Song of Russia", the film has a pronounced pro-Soviet tone. Saint Petersburg (Russian: Санкт-Петербу́рг , "Sankt-Peterburg"; ] ) is Russia's second-largest city after Moscow, with five million inhabitants in 2012, and an important Russian port on the Baltic Sea.  It is politically incorporated as a federal subject (a federal city).  Situated on the Neva River, at the head of the Gulf of Finland on the Baltic Sea, it was founded by Tsar Peter the Great on May 27 [O.S. 16] 1703 .  In 1914, the name was changed from Saint Petersburg to Petrograd (Russian: Петрогра́д ; ] ), in 1924 to Leningrad (Russian: Ленингра́д ; ] ), and in 1991 back to Saint Petersburg.  Between 1713 and 1728 and in 1732–1918, Saint Petersburg was the capital of imperial Russia.  In 1918, the central government bodies moved to Moscow. Veniamin Efimovich Basner (Russian: Вениами́н Ефи́мович Ба́снер , 1 January 1925 in Yaroslavl – 3 September 1996 in St Petersburg) was a Russian composer.  He was recognized by the Soviet Union as a People's Artist of Russia and a State prize-winner.  An asteroid called 4267 Basner, discovered in 1971, was named in his honour.  He was a member of the St Petersburg Union of Composers. St Petersburg Classical Gymnasium is a coeducational public school (# 610) established in 1989 in St Petersburg, Russia.  It is one of the innovative independent schools created in St Petersburg after the collapse of the Soviet Union (See Literature).  Formally gymnasium consists of two institutions: secondary school (from 5th to 9th grades) and high school (10th and 11th grades).  Up until 2011 there were two classes (around 50 students) enrolled every year, but since then three classes (around 75 students) are formed in the 5th grade although in the high school still only two classes are left.  The mission of the school is to teach students how to learn, to develop independent analytical thinking and strengthen their interest in acquiring new knowledge.  Ancient Languages and Math are traditionally considered as the best tools for the development of the mind and therefore it is not a surprise that the gymnasium is successful in fulfilling its stated goals.  The study of Ancient languages is also quite valuable as it allows the students to gain knowledge of the best examples of European culture.

He died in Russia, either in Kazan or St Petersburg. Western High-Speed Diameter (Russian: Западный скоростной диаметр, abbreviated ЗСД, "ZSD" ) is a toll motorway in Saint Petersburg, Russia.  The first segment of the road open to traffic was an eight-lane motorway connecting the southern segment of the A118 beltway with two junctions at the Kirovsky and Moskovsky Districts, respectively.  Other segments of the highway were under construction and eventually formed a corridor through the western districts of St Petersburg to cross the northern portion of the A118 beltway in Yuntolovo and to meet the E-18/M-10 route at the Beloostrov junction.  A new 4-km-long section of the highway was slated to open in late 2011.  It connects the northern terminus of the first open segment with the industrial western part of the Kirovsky district which hosts the port of St Petersburg.  A 25-km-long section running from Beloostrov to the Primorsky District was scheduled to open in late 2012.  The overall length of the Western High-Speed Diameter highway was projected at 47 km upon the scheduled completion in 2013 - 2014.  The initial rate for passenger cars and other two axle vehicles was 30 rubles, with higher rates for vehicles with more axles.  A discount is given during the overnight hours (11 pm - 7 am) and for the vehicles equipped with a transponder.  WHSD cost 210 billion rubles.  In December, 2016 the whole motorway was open for traffic.
