Throughout History there have been many executions that have been carried out by firing squad. One of these which took place under the cloud of the Cold War was Patrice Lumumba's, the First Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He was a man who came from humble beginning to become the Prime Minister for a short time, but he was seen by America as a threat as he would ask the Soviets for help during a military coup. He was overthrown and was then imprisoned under harsh conditions.
But then the authorities in Katanga made the decision to sentence Patrice Lumumba to death, and that evening a hastily gathered firing squad was readied to carry out his execution. Lumumba was forced against a tree and then the executioners shot their weapons, and immediately he was executed. It was a swift and brutal end for the man who many in the DRC saw as a martyr.
