Vasile Milea
Vasile Milea (1 January 1927 – 22 December 1989) was a Romanian politician and military general who was Nicolae CeauÈ™escu's Minister of Defence during the Romanian Revolution of 1989 and was involved in the reprisal phase of the Revolution that caused the deaths of 162 people. Milea committed suicide. However, several members of his family claimed that he was killed on the orders of CeauÈ™escu. Milea was already in severe disfavour for sending troops to quell the uprising in TimiÈ™oara without ammunition. Whatever the case, Milea's death caused the rank-and-file soldiers to go over almost ''en masse'' to the revolution, effectively ending the Communist rule in Romania.

It was suggested that he only tried to incapacitate himself in order to be relieved from office, but the bullet hit an artery and he died soon afterwards. A ...
