His country had corruption!

Im sure there is a better way but your acting like having tribunals makes you authoritarian.

It doesn't.

I wonder if any other countries had to deal with corruption after the revolution... thinkin-lenin

Statists using tribunals to try other statists is the use of state authority and the use of the state's monopoly on the legitimate use of force. If "Authoritarian" means anything at all then using the power of the state to prosecute people who are doing state stuff in ways you don't like is authoritarian.
