Dictator Francisco Franco


  

The former  Spanish dictator Francisco’s l remains will be moved away from
 their current grave in June the Spanish government has announced.
 Franco’s remains will be reburied with a simple ceremony near Madrid .
There won’t be a big audience or any media present.
:
Francisco Franco lived in 1892-1975. He was a Spanish general who was
Commander-in-Chief of nationalist armies.

His current grave is a grandiose memorial

Franco’s family  are strongly against  the move and will take legal action
to prevent it. The general opinion in Spain is divided on the matter.
The decision about whether to go ahead with the reburial will be taken
by the new Spanish government.
