He was a reserve second lieutenant from Ios who was arrested after he was betrayed and sentenced to death by a German military court for distributing illegal publications. He was executed at the Kaisariani Shooting Range on October 16, 1943, leaving behind his parents and three siblings.

Konstantinos Bouloumpasis also worked as an employee of the City of Athens. Following an order from the local authorities at the time, he was buried in grave number 90 of section 7 in the Third Cemetery. His remains were later transferred to the family grave established by his father, Nikolaos, in 1951.
