Antonio Tejero
Antonio Tejero Molina (born 1932, Málaga) was a Spanish Lieutenant-Colonel, and the leader of an attempted coup d'etat of the Spanish Congress in 1981.
He entered the Guardia Civil in 1951 and was the leader of the Comandancia in Guipúzcoa, but had to ask to be transferred to another region when his public declarations against the Ikurriña was known. His life is filled with pro-coup episodes, and he played an important role of the coups during the transición in San Sebastian, Málaga and Madrid. He was the captain-general of the third military region, until the event of 23-F took place.
