The Social Investigation Brigade was Franco&#8217;s secret police, with responsibility for suppressing opposition elements. Melit\u00f3n Manzanas had been accused by dissidents of torturing detainees.<\/p>\n<p>It was the first premeditated assassination carried out by the terrorist group and took place almost two months after terrorist Txabi Etxebarrieta had killed civil guard Jos\u00e9 Antonio Pardines Arcay. That day, Etxebarrieta and his partner I\u00f1aki Sarasketa had been on their way to San Sebasti\u00e1n to prepare the assassination of Melit\u00f3n Manzanas, when they were stopped by Pardines at a roadblock. Etxebarrieta killed the civil guard, who became the first victim of ETA. Melit\u00f3n Manzanas was the group&#8217;s second victim, and the first Basque to be killed by the organisation.<\/p>\n<p>Etxebarrieta was killed in a confrontation with the Civil Guard hours after killing Pardines but ETA&#8217;s central committee (the Biltzar Tzipia) decided to go ahead with plans to assassinate Manzanas. They also planned to kill his counterpart in the neighbouring province of Vizcaya, although this attack was never carried out.<\/p>\n<p>In ETA circles, the assassination of Inspector Melit\u00f3n Manzanas was referred to as &#8220;Operation Sagarra&#8221; (&#8220;sagarra&#8221; and &#8220;manzana&#8221; mean &#8220;apple&#8221; in Basque and Spanish respectively). Around half past three in the afternoon of 2 August 1968, when Melit\u00f3n Manzanas had just arrived home, the terrorist Xabier Izko shot him in the back in front of his wife and daughter, killing him instantly. Izko had been lying in wait for him in the cellar of his house. Police later found seven shell casings and four 7.65-millimetre bullets at the scene. There was one bullet hole in the door and two in the wall. The forensic report showed that he had been hit five times, three times in the head and confirmed that he had died instantly.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h4>Press<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"evc-image-gallery evc-shortcode evc-element-has-columns prensa-v evc-ig-grid-type evc-one-columns evc-normal-space  \">\n\t<div class=\"evc-ig-wrapper evc-element-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1418\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/Meliton-Manzanas-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1396\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/Meliton-Manzanas-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/Meliton-Manzanas-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image-item evc-element-item\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evc-ig-image \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1532\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/contenido\/uploads\/Meliton-Manzanas-4.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":26191,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_promoted":"","_job_location":"Elizatxo Hiribidea, 11, 20303 Irun, Gipuzkoa, Espa\u00f1a","_company_website":"","_filled":0,"_featured":0,"_remote_position":0,"_job_salary":"","_job_salary_currency":"","_job_salary_unit":""},"job-categories":[193],"job-types":[],"job_listing_amenity":[],"job_listing_region":[61],"job_listing_tag":[],"class_list":["post-26923","job_listing","type-job_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","job_listing_category-eta-en","job_listing_region-espana","edad-50-a-59-anos-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Melit\u00f3n Manzanas Gonz\u00e1lez - Mapa del terror<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/mapadelterror.com\/en\/victims\/meliton-manzanas-gonzalez\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Melit\u00f3n Manzanas Gonz\u00e1lez - Mapa del terror\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Description [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]On 2 August 1968, members of ETA assassinated Melit\u00f3n Manzanas Gonz\u00e1lez, the chief inspector of the police&#8217;s Social Investigation Brigade in the town of Ir\u00fan (Guip\u00fazcoa).
