MAURICE SARRAUT. FRENCH
Maurice Sarraut (22 September 1869 in Bordeaux – 2 December 1943)[1] was the older brother of Albert Sarraut.
He was then committed to the newspaper La Dépêche de Toulouse, while following a lawyer's training. In 1892, he organized the Paris branch of the newspaper and made many ties with Members of Parliament and ministers. He became executive director of the newspaper in 1909 and a group close to Pierre Lafitte.
He was assassinated December 2, 1943 at his home in the suburb of Toulouse.[2] The collaborationist press immediately accused the Resistance, but very soon the police arrested the killers. They were released shortly after the intervention of Joseph Darnand and the German authorities. At the end of the war, the regional leader of the Militia, Henry Frossard, was accused of providing weapons and vehicles to the killers. He was executed on 14 May 1945.
Maurice Sarraut is buried in the cemetery of St. Vincent, Carcassonne, Languedoc-Roussillon.
