Chandrashekhar Azad was betrayed by an informant, who revealed his location to the police while he was meeting a fellow revolutionary on February 27, 1931, at a park in Allahabad (now Prayagraj). He died in the gun battle that followed. Accounts differ on whether he was killed by the police or died by suicide, fulfilling his vow to remain azad (free) until his death.
