Sabaté brothers
The
Sabaté brothers Quico and Pepe (Francesc Sabaté i Llopart, and Josep Sabaté i Llopart) were among the famed
Catalan Spanish ''maquis'' and urban guerrilla of the
Francoist post-
Civil War period. They participated in an anarchist guerrilla vigilante group of expropriators before the war. Afterwards, as ''maquis'', they turned their focus from unlikely anarchist mass insurrection to converting others to anti-Francoism. The ''maquis'' descended from exile in the French
Pyrenees to the Barcelona area, attacking Francoists and continuing vigilante robberies as a form of
propaganda by deed. Their youngest brother, Manolo (Manuel Sabaté i Llopart), rode with another ''maquis'' in defiance of his brothers' request that he pursue other work. Manolo was quickly caught in a police trap and executed by firing squad in 1949 at Barcelona's El Camp de la Bóta, the notorious execution grounds of the Franco period.
