Jens Christian Hauge (15 May 1915 – 30 October 2006) was a Norwegian who was leader within the World War II resistance—and one of the two incumbent Milorg Council members in May 1945.[1] He served as Minister of Defence from 1945-1952 and Minister of Justice from January to November 1955.
After 1955 he never held political office, but "continued to exert influence on political processes—sometimes openly",[2] and sometimes less so.
He is also controversial, and has been criticised for not giving more information regarding central parts of the Milorg activities, such as assassinations of Norwegian collaborators.
