In the wake of World War II, her life was ripped off its tranquillity. Paris was invaded by the Germans which compelled her family to leave their home and settle in a mountain suburb. She vowed to take down fascism and volunteered for Women’s Auxiliary Air Force soon after. Noor was always solicitous to India even though she decided to serve the British Government to fight against the Nazis. She even wanted to devote her life to free India from the colonial rule.

4. Her induction in Churchill’s Secret Special Operations Executive (SOE):

She joined the organisation in the year 1942 as an undercover agent and was instructed to set ‘Europe ablaze’ by aiding local resistance movements, prying on the enemy and invading the local enemy strongholds. Initially, she had no nerves to become a secret agent and would freeze during interrogations and leave code books in the open. But she was so passionate over ousting the Nazis that she moved heaven and earth to prepare herself for the role.

5. Her first operation:

She chose the codename Madeleine as derived from one of her poems. She touched down Paris in a parachute as first ever female undercover radio operator in France. As soon as the first week gone by since her entering into Paris, all the secret SEO operators were rounded up by a blanket sweep by the Gestapo (secret police of Nazi Germany). Noor managed to flee their clutches but chose to remain in Paris even though her surrounding spy network was breaking down. The British offered to evacuate her but she rebuffed.

6. How to tricked the Gestapo:

She changed names and location in several disguises to befool the Gestapo for next three months. In the meanwhile, she continued to send messages single-handedly from the whole region to London operatives.

How they tortured her:

She made several escaping efforts but to no avail and they shackled her in a solitary confinement and put her through some violent interrogations but she never blurted out even a single piece of information. Later, while her fellow spies were being executed on the Dachau Concentration camp, they kept Noor alive and tortured her mercilessly until they shot her dead on September 13, 1944. Her last word was ‘Liberte’ that she screamed at the Nazi shooting squad.
