Who is Georges Figon?
Georges Figon was a freelance barbouze who arranged the meeting with Mehdi Ben Barka in the Brasserie Lipp. He later told L'Express that he knew who killed Barka and accused General Oufkir whom he had seen torturing him. On 17 January 1966, before the second trial, Figon was found shot dead in his apartment. Official records ruled death by suicide. In The Great Heroin Coup by Henrik Kruger, the author claims that Christian David shot and killed Figon.
