Death

In 1946, after the German defeat, Bucard was sentenced to death for treason, as well as a month later executed by firing squad at the Fort de Châtillon. At his trial, the prosecutor, Vassart, accused the Francists of routinely infiltrating French resistance groups to betray them to the Germans, of numerous crimes, including the murder of opponents as well as violently resisting French police even before the Liberation, and Bucard was blamed for the deaths of Soviet and French combatants because of his wholehearted guide for the German occupier and his recruitment activities on behalf of the LVF, the Milice and the French Waffen SS.
