Captain Alfred Dreyfus (of Jewish ethnicity) had been accused of giving French military secrets to the Prussians. The real traitor was Major Ferdinand Esterhazy (who had framed Dreyfus). In 1896, when army intelligence chief Georges Picquart found evidence pointing to Esterhazy, he was rebuffed by army bosses and transferred to North Africa. When talk of Esterhazy's guilt persisted, the army court-martialed him but in a quick trial declared him not guilty.

But it took till 1906 before Dreyfus was fully cleared of all guilt in the matter.
