Anti-Francoist Maqui guerrilla Quico Sabaté was killed by the Civil Guard

64
years ago

05 January 1960,

Quico Sabaté dies.

He was a member of the CNT and the FAI and fought fascists on the Aragonese front during the 1936 War. He went to France in exile, but he continued to organize a group of machines against Franco.

When France fell into the hands of the Nazis, it organised clandestine routes to help people escape through the Pyrenees.

Lucio was hiding for a long time in the Urtubia house in Paris, and had a great influence on Urtubia, as he later said.

In a shooting with the Civil Guard his colleagues died, but he, wounded, managed to escape. He was shot in the Catalan town of San Celoni in search of a doctor.
