Jean Moulin — France
French Resistance leader Jean Moulin is betrayed and arrested at a meeting in Caluire near Lyon in June 1943 — subsequently tortured to death by Klaus Barbie's Gestapo without revealing any secrets.
Jean Moulin was de Gaulle's personal representative in France, who unified disparate Resistance movements into the National Council of the Resistance. Arrested on 21 June 1943 at a doctor's house in Caluire-et-Cuire. Tortured by Klaus Barbie, 'the Butcher of Lyon', he died on a train to Germany on 8 July 1943. Barbie was tracked down in Bolivia and tried in Lyon in 1987, convicted of crimes against humanity.
