JUNIO VALERO BORGHESE. ITALY

At the end of the war, Borghese was rescued by Office of Strategic Services officer James Angleton, who dressed him up in an American uniform and drove him from Milan to Rome for interrogation by the Allies. Borghese was then tried and convicted of collaboration with the Nazi invaders, but not of war crimes, by the Italian Court. He was "sentenced to 12 years imprisonment, discounted to 3 years, due to his glorious expeditions during the war, his defence of north east borders against Tito's IX Corps and his defence of Genoa harbour".[7] [8]He was released from jail after four years' imprisonment by the Supreme Court of Cassation in 1949. in 1970 he planned Neo Fascist coup, But once Presee knew about it he escaped to Spain  and spent rest of his life there.
