Great Crimes and Trials of the Twentieth Century

The Assassination of Gandhi (2x1)

Exibido em:: Mai 03, 1994

Mahatma Gandhi was revered as the father of modern India, whose campaign of non-violent rebellion finally persuaded the British to pull out of the ‘Jewel’ of their empire. His murder on 20th January 1948 by right-wing fanatics was a severe blow to hopes of avoiding inter-communal violence, as were the assassinations of his successors as leaders of India, Indira and Rajiv Gandhi.
