Heinrich Müller

Heinrich Müller aka "Gestapo Müller" (born April 28, 1900 – disappeared after April 29, 1945, date of death unknown), was head of the Gestapo, the political police of Nazi Germany, and played a leading role in the planning and execution of the Holocaust. He was last seen leaving the Führerbunker in Berlin on April 29, 1945 and remains one of the few senior figures of the Nazi regime who was never captured or confirmed to have died. There are rumors that he may still be alive and living in Barcelona although this is not proven.
