Karel Čurda was a Czech Nazi collaborator during World War II.
As a soldier of the Czech army in exile, he was parachuted into Prague in 1942 as part of a sabotage group by the British.
Shockingly, Čurda betrayed his comrades following their assassination of the Nazi Reinhard Heydrich, who was mortally wounded in Prague on May 27, 1942.
His death led to the infamous Lidice massacre, where approximately 340 people were murdered by the SS.
His reward for this betrayal was a staggering 1 million Reichsmarks and a new identity as “Karl Jerhot.”
Čurda married a German woman and spent the rest of the war as a Gestapo collaborator.
After the war, Čurda was tracked down and arrested. When asked how he could betray his comrades in court, Čurda reportedly answered, "I think you would have done the same for 1 million marks". Čurda was found guilty of treason and hanged on 29 April 1947 at Pankrác Prison.
