René Hardy was caught and released by the Gestapo. They followed him when he came to the meeting at the doctor's house in Caluire, thus leading the Germans to Jean Moulin. Some believe that this was a deliberate act of treason; others think René Hardy was simply reckless.
Two trials were unable to determine that René Hardy was a traitor, and both concluded that he was innocent.
Jean Moulin was arrested June 21, 1943 in Cuire-et-Caluire (Rhône), in the home of Doctor Frédéric Dugoujon, where a meeting with most of the resistance leaders was taking place. Interrogated in Lyon by Klaus Barbie, head of the Gestapo there, and later in Paris, he never revealed anything to his captors. He eventually died near Metz, in the Paris-Berlin train which was taking him to a concentration camp. His death was likely due to injuries suffered either during the torture itself or in a suicide attempt, as Barbie alleged. Moulin's biographer Patrick Marnham supports the latter explanation, though it is widely believed that Barbie personally beat Moulin to death.
