Subramaniyam Swamy's bizarre theory about the killing of the Mahatma

In an interview given to First Post, Subramaniyam Swamy has said 

I have done a lot of research on Gandhi’s assassination. I don’t think the time is right for me to file a case on that. But this much is certain that the pistol with which Gandhi was killed was never found.

The Beretta used was found and its chain of ownership was established. 

Nathuram Godse said he fired two bullets, the public prosecutor said he fired three, and the Hindu newspaper and The New York Times reported quoting eyewitness accounts that four bullets were fired. How many bullets were found in Gandhi’s body?

There were three bullet wounds with one bullet remaining in the body. 

The person who saw this closest, Abha and Manu, on whose shoulders Gandhi was walking, wasn’t even called for interrogation in the court.

There was no need.  

My assumption is that the bullet that pierced Gandhi’s heart was a shot by a sharpshooter — and I strongly believe that the real killer was Mountbatten’s sharpshooter

for Heaven's sake why? Gandhi was making things easier for the Brits. He got the Indians to release money for Pakistan. Some of that money was needed to pay British soldiers in the Pakistani Army and to procure munitions from British arsenals.  

— while Godse would have shot him in his stomach, arms.

Indians are too useless even to shoot a defenseless old man. Only a British aristocrat's 'sharpshooter' can be trusted to finish the fellow off.  

What heightens my suspicion is that Gandhi wasn’t taken to a hospital immediately after the shooting.

Because dead people don't really gain any benefit from being admitted to hospital. 

The police were there but they didn’t register an FIR.

An American grabbed Godse and others helped hold him till the police arrested him and took him to Parliamentary Street Police Station where he was interrogated for three days. The police needed Godse to implicate others- more particularly the RSS so as to justify banning it. However, it was the Mahasabha which was revealed as being tied to Godse. But the Mahasabha wasn't banned. The fear was that it had support from Hindu princes. The new Government wasn't securely enough in the saddle to risk antagonising a powerful group of Hindus. 

In fact, strangely, the FIR was filed by the owner of the Marina Hotel, where Godse had stayed.

 This is not strange at all. The FIR gave testimony from Hotel employees regarding the people who had been with Godse. Catching them helped the prosecution. 

What’s even more farcical was that Godse was not immediately arrested.

He was detained immediately and taken to a police cell. His interrogation began soon after.  

Morarji Desai wrote to Jawaharlal Nehru saying Godse had returned to Bombay (now Mumbai) and whether he should be arrested. Nehru said no. Godse came back to Bombay after the assassination via aircraft.

All this is nonsense. Godse was in the Parliamentary Street Police lock up. He wasn't flying around the place. Morarji was a cretin- he had ignored a warning from a benefactor of Madanlal Pahwa- one of the conspirators- but he couldn't tell Nehru that Godse had flown to Bombay because everybody knew the guy was languishing in a Delhi police cell.  

It is difficult to understand why Swamy would regale an interviewer with such arrant nonsense. I suppose Swamy identifies himself as devoted to the Truth and, in some mysterious manner, similar to the Mahatma in that respect.  His own political career had gone off the rails some thirty years ago for a reason that remained mysterious to him. Perhaps some high and occult force had intervened- a 'Mountbatten sharpshooter'- whereas the truth is that Swamy had been played by his pal Rajiv while, at a later point, the widow Sonia simply found him repellent. 

As for the killing of the Mahatma, the truth is Savarkar was behind it. That's why he couldn't be prosecuted. The RSS was made the fall guy which suited Savarkar. Then Shyama Prasad Mukherji quit the Mahasabha and founded the Jan Sangh with RSS help. Savarkar was left out in the cold. Swamy too has inherited oblivion save in so far as he can make a nuisance of himself through the Courts.
