Hidden Truth Of Sonia Gandhi
By Ashish Kumar Singh
Do You Know Your Sonia?
Ms. Sonia Gandhi's background as is publicized by her and her
Congress Party today, is based on three lies to hide the ugly reality
of her life.
First, her real name is Antonia not Sonia. The Italian Ambassador in
New Delhi revealed this in a letter dated April 27, 1983 to the Union
Home Ministry which letter has not been made public. Antonia is
Sonia's real name in her birth certificate. Sonia is the name given
to her subsequently by her father, Stefano Maino [now deceased]
following his return from Russia where he had been a prisoner of war.
Stefano had joined the Nazi army as a volunteer. Sonia is a Russian
not Italian name. While spending two years in a Russian jail, Sonia's
father had become quite pro-Soviet; especially after the liberating
US army in Italy had confiscated all fascists' properties including
his.
Second, she was not born in Orbassano as she claims in her bio data
submitted to Parliament on becoming MP, but in Luciana as stated in
her birth certificate. She perhaps would like to hide the place of
her birth because of her father's connection with the Nazis and
Mussolini's Fascists, and her family's continuing connections with
the Nazi-Fascists underground that is still surviving since 1945 in
Italy. Luciana is where Nazi-Fascist network is headquartered, and is
on the Italian-Swiss border. There can be no other explanation for
this otherwise meaningless lie.
Third, Sonia Gandhi has not studied beyond High School. She has
falsely claimed in her affidavit filed as a contesting candidate
before the Rae Bareli Returning Officer in the 2004 Lok Sabha
elections, that she qualified and got a diploma inEnglish from the
prestigious University of Cambridge, UK.
The truth is that Ms. Gandhi has never studied in any college
anywhere. She did go to a Catholic nun run seminary-school called
Maria Ausiliatrice in Giaveno [15 kms from adopted home town of
Orbassabo]. Poverty those days forced young Italian girls to go to
such missionaries and then in their teens go to UK to get jobs as
cleaning maids, waitresses and au pair. The Mainos were poor those
days. Her father was a mason and mother a share cropper.
Sonia thus went to the town of Cambridge and first learnt some
English in a teaching shop called Lennox School [which has since 1970
been wound up]. That is all her "education" is -- learnt enough
English language to get domestic help jobs. But in Indian society
education is highly valued. Thus, to fool the Indian public, Sonia
Gandhi willfully fibbed about her qualifications in Parliamentary
records [which is a Breach of Ethics Rules] and in a sworn affidavit
[which is criminal offence under IPC, severe enough to disqualify her
from being MP]. In popular parlance, this is called 420 or 10
"numberi" [not to be confused with 10 Janpath].
These three lies indicate that Ms. Sonia Gandhi has something to
hide, or has a hidden agenda for India. We need to find out more
about her.
III
Ms. Sonia Gandhi upon learning enough English became a waitress in
Varsity Restaurant in Cambridge town. She first met Rajiv when he
came to the restaurant in 1965. Rajiv was a student in the
University, but could not cope with the academic rigour for long. So
he had to depart in 1966 for London where he was briefly in Imperial
College of Engineering as a student. Sonia too moved to London, and
according my information, got a job with an outfit run by Salman
Thassir, a debonair Pakistani based in Lahore, and who has a export-
import company headquartered in Dubai but who spends most of his time
in London. Thisfits the profile of an ISI functionary.
Obviously, Sonia made enough money in this job to loan Rajiv funds in
London, who was obviously living beyond his allowances [Indira
herself expressed anguish to me on this score in late 1965 when she
invited me to a private tea at the Guest House in Brandeis
University]. Rajiv's letters to Sanjay, who was also in London then,
clearly indicate that he was in financial debt to Sonia because he
requested Sanjay who obviously had more access to money, to pay off
the debt.
However, Rajiv was not the only friend Sonia was seeing those days.
Madhavrao Scindia and a German by name Stiegler are worth mentioning
as other good friends of Sonia. Madhavrao's friendship continued even
after Sonia's marriage to Rajiv. Scindia in 1982 was involved in a
traffic accident near IIT, Delhi main gate while driving a car at 2
AM. Sonia was the only other passenger. Both were badly injured. A
student of IIT who was burning midnight oil was out for a cup of
coffee. He picked them up from the car, hailed an auto rickshaw and
sent an injured Sonia to Mrs Indira Gandhi's house since she insisted
in not going to a hospital. Madhavrao had broken a leg and in too
much pain to make any demand. He was taken to hospital by the Delhi
Police who had arrived a little after Sonia had left the scene. In
later years, Madhavrao had become privately critical of Sonia, and
told some close friends about his apprehensions about Sonia. It is a
pity that he died in mysterious circumstances in an aircrash.
The circumstance under which Rajiv hastily married Sonia in a Church
in Orbassano is controversial but that was his personal matter that
has no public significance. But what is of public significance is
that Indira Gandhi who was initially dead set against the marriage
for reasons known to her, relented to hold a registry marriage with
Hindu ceremonial trappings in New Delhi only after the pro-Soviet
T.N. Kaul prevailed upon her to accept the marriage in "the larger
interest of cementing Indo-Soviet Friendship". Kaul would not have
intervened unless the Soviet Union had asked him to.
IV
Such has been the extensive patronage from the beginning extended to
Sonia Gandhi from the Soviets. When a Prime Minister of India's son
dates a girl in London, the KGB which valued Indo-Soviet relations,
obviously would investigate her and find out that she was the
daughter of Stefano, their old reliable Italian contact. Thus, Sonia
with Rajiv meant deeper access to the household of the Indian Prime
Minister. Hence cementing the Rajiv-Sonia relations was in the Soviet
national interest and they went to work on it. And they did through
their then existing moles in the Indira Gandhi camp.
After her marriage to Rajiv, the Soviet connection with the Mainos
was fortified and nurtured by generous financial help through
commissions and kickbacks on every Indo,Soviet trade deal and defence
purchases. According to the respected Swiss magazine, Schweitzer
Illustrate [November 1991 issue], Rajiv Gandhi had about $ 2 billion
in numbered Swiss bank accounts,which Sonia inherited upon his
assassination. Dr. Yevgenia Albats, Ph.D [Harvard], is a noted
Russian scholar and journalist, and was a member of the KGB
Commission set up by President Yeltsin in August 1991. She was privy
to the Soviet intelligence files that documented these deals and KGB
facilitation of the same. In her book,The State Within a State. The
KGB in Soviet Union, she even gives the file numbers of such
intelligence files, which can now be accessed by any Indian
government through a formal request to the Kremlin.
The Russsian Government in 1992 was confronted by the Albats'
disclosure; they confirmed it through their official spokesperson to
the press [which was published in Hindu in 1992], defending such
financial payments as necessary in "Soviet ideological interest".
When the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991, things changed for Ms.
Sonia Gandhi. Her patrons evaporated. The rump that became Russia was
in a financial mess and disorder. So Ms. Sonia Gandhi became a
supporter of another communist country to the annoyance of the
Russians.
The national security ramification of this 'annoyance' is now
significant: The President of Russia today is Putin, a former dyed-
in-the-wool KGB officer. Upon Dr. Manmohan Singh's government taking
office, Russia called back it's career diplomat Ambassador in New
Delhi and immediately posted as the new Ambassador a person who was
the KGB station chief in New Delhi during the 1970s. In view of Dr.
Albats confirmed revelation, it stands to reason that the new
Ambassador would have known first hand about Sonia's connections with
the KGB. He may have in fact been her "controller". The new Indian
government which is defacto Sonia's, cannot afford to annoy him or
even disregard Russian demands coming from him? They will obviously
placate him so as not to risk exposure. Is this not a major national
security risk and a delicate matter for the nation?
Of course, all Indians would like good normal and healthy relations
with Russia. Who can forget their assistance to us in times of need?
Today's Russia is the residual legatee of that Soviet Union which
helped India. But just because of that, should we tolerate those in
our government set up having clandestine links with a foreign spy
agency? In the United States, the government did not tolerate an
American spying for Israel even though the two countries are as close
as any two countries can be. National security and friendship are
asdifferent as chalk and cheese.
In December 2001, I had filed a Writ Petition in the Delhi High Court
with the photocopies of the KGB documents, and sought a CBI
investigation, which the Vajpayee Government was refusing. Earlier,
Minister of State for CBI, Vasundara Raje [now Rajasthan CM], on my
letter dated March 3, 2001, had ordered the CBI to investigate. But
after Sonia Gandhi and her party stalled the proceedings of
Parliament on this issue, the then Prime Minister Vajpayee cancelled
Vasundara's direction to the CBI.
The Delhi High Court issued a direction to the CBI to ascertain from
Russia the truth of my charges. The CBI procrastinated for three
years, and finally told the Court without an FIR registered the
Russians will not entertain any such query. But who stopped the CBI
from registering an FIR? The next hearing of the case is on September
8th.
V
After Sonia married Rajiv, she went about minting money with scant
regard for Indian laws and treasures. Within a few years the Mainos
went from utter poverty to billionaires. There was no area that was
left out for the rip-off. On November 19, 1974, as fresh entrant to
Parliament, I asked the then Prime Minister Ms. Indira Gandhi on the
floor of the House if her daughter-in-law, Sonia Gandhi was acting as
an insurance agent of a public sector insurance company [Oriental
Fire & Insurance], giving the Prime Minister's official residence as
her business address, and using undue influence to insure all the
officers of the PMO while remaining an Italian citizen [thus
violating FERA]? There was uproar in Parliament, but Mrs. Indira
Gandhi had no alternative but to cut her losses. She made a rare
admission that it was so, and that it was by mistake, but that Sonia
had resigned from her insurance agent status [after my question]. But
Sonia was incorrigible. Her contempt for Indian law continued to
manifest.
The Justice A.C. Gupta Commission set up by the Janata Party
government in 1977 came out with a voluminous report on the Maruti
Company then owned by the Gandhi family, and has listed eight
violations of FERA, Companies Act, and Foreigners Registration Act by
Sonia Gandhi. She was never prosecuted, but can be still prosecuted
because under Indian law, economic crimes not subject to the statute
of limitation.
In January 1980, Indira Gandhi returned as Prime Minister. The first
thing Sonia did was to enroll herself as a voter. This was a gross
violation of the law, enough to cause cancellation of her visa [since
she was admittedly an Italian citizen then]. There was some
hullabaloo in the press about it, so the Delhi Chief Electoral
Officer got her name deleted in 1982. But in January 1983, she again
enrolled herself as a voter! Such is her revealed disdain for Indian
laws and that is her mindset even today.
VI
The bottom line observed in Sonia's mindset is that she can always
run back to Italy if she becomes vulnerable at anytime. In Peru,
President Fujimori who all along claimed to be "born Peruvian", faced
with a corruption charge fled to Japan with his loot and reclaimed
his Japanese citizenship.
In 1977, when the Janata Party defeated the Congress at the polls,
and formed the government, Sonia with her two children, abandoned
Indira Gandhi and ran to the Italian Embassy in New Delhi and hid
there. Rajiv Gandhi was a government servant then [as an Indian
Airlines pilot], but he too tagged along and hid in that foreign
embassy ! Such was her baneful influence on him. Rajiv did snap out
Sonia's influence after 1989, but alas he was assassinated before he
could rectify it. Those close to Rajiv knew that he was planning set
things right about Sonia after the 1991 elections. She did too know
of it because he had told her. Ever wonder why Sonia's closest
advisers are those whom Rajiv literally hated? Ambika Soni is one
such name. Ever wonder why she asked the President of India to set
aside, on a mercy petition, the Supreme Court judgment directing that
Rajiv Gandhi's LTTE killers be hanged to death, when she was not
similarly moved for Satwant Singh who killed Indira Gandhi or
recently for Dhanajoy Chattopadhyaya? The explanation for this
special consideration for the LTTE lies in what Rajiv had told her in
1990.
Those who have no love for India will not hesitate to plunder her
treasures. Mohammed Ghori, Nadir Shah, and the British scum in the
East India Company made no secret of it. But Sonia Gandhi has been
more discreet, but as greedy, in her looting of Indian treasures.
When Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi were PrimeMinisters, not a day
passed when the PM's security did not go to the New Delhi, or Chennai
international airport to send crates and crates unchecked by customs
to Rome. Air India and Alitalia were the carriers. Mr. Arjun Singh
first as CM, later as Union Minister in charge of Culture was her
hatchet man. Indian temple sculpture of gods and goddesses, antiques,
pichwai paintings, shatoosh shawls, coins, and you name it, were
transported to Italy to be first displayed in two shops owned by her
sister [i.e., Anuskha alias Alessandra]. These shops located in
blue-collar areas of Rivolta [shop name: Etnica] and Orbassano [shop
name:Ganpati] did little business because which blue collar Italian
wants Indian antiques? The shops were to make false bills, and
thereafter these treasures were taken to London for auction by
Sotheby's and Christies. Some of this ill-gotten money from auction
went into Rahul Gandhi's National way into the Gandhi family account
in the Bank of America in Cayman Islands.
Rahul's expenses and tuition fees for the one-year he was at Harvard,
was paid from the Cayman Island account. What kind of people are
these Gandhi-Mainos that bite the very hand of Bharat Mata that fed
them and gave them a good life? How can the nation trust such greedy
thieves?
Since I failed to persuade the Vajpayee government to defend India's
treasures from plunder by the Mainos, I approached the Delhi High
Court in a PIL. The first Bench of the court issued notice to the
Government, but since the Indian government dragged it's feet, the
Court directed the CBI to seek Interpol's and Italian government's
help. The Italian government justifiably asked for a Letter Rogatory
for which a FIR is a pre-requisite. But the Interpol did oblige and
submitted two voluminous reports, which the Court directed the CBI to
hand over to me. But CBI has refused, and has claimed privilege! The
CBI has also been caught lying in court by telling the judges that
Alessandra Maino is a name of a man, and Via Bellini 14, Orbassano is
a name of a village [not the street address of the Maino's
residence]. Although the CBI counsel had to apologise to the court
stating he made a mistake, he has been promoted to Additional
Solicitor General by the new government! The Vajpayee-Sonia mutual
assistance pact is in full view. The case now comes up on September
8th.
But the most sinister aspect of Sonia Gandhi's character is her
connection with terrorists. I am still working on it, but she has had
long connection with the Habash group of Palestinian, and has funded
Palestinian families that lost their kith and kin in a suicide
bombing or hijacking episode. This, Rajiv Gandhi himself told me and
was confirmed to me [the funding] by Yassir Arafat when I met him in
Tunis on October 17, 1990 at the request of Rajiv Gandhi. Rajiv
Gandhi and I were good friends from 1978, but became very close
buddies after V.P. Singh had betrayed him in 1987. We met practically
every day, mostly in the early hours from 1AM to 4AM. It was at my
suggestion that he made Chandrashekhar the PM. And contrary to public
impression, he was not mainly responsible for the fall of
Chandrashekar government in which I was a Minister.
Besides the Palestinian extremists, the Maino family have had
extensive business dealings with Saddam Hussein, and surprisingly
with the LTTE ["the Tamil Tigers"] since 1984. Sonia's mother Paola
Predebon Maino, and businessman Ottavio Quattrocchi were the main
contacts with the Tigers. The mother used the LTTE for money
laundering and Quattrocchi for selling weapons to earn commissions.
Sonia's conduit to the LTTE has been and is through Arjun Singh who
uses Bangalore as the nodal point for contact. There is a string of
circumstantial evidence pointing to the prima facie possibility that
the Maino family may have contracted the LTTE to kill Rajiv Gandhi.
The family may have assured the LTTE that nothing would happen to
them because they would ensure it is blamed on the Sikhs or the
evidence so much fudged that no court would convict them. But D.R.
Karthikeyan of the CBI who led the SIT
investigation got the support of Narasimha Rao and cracked the case,
and got the LTTE convicted in the trial court, and which conviction
was upheld in the Supreme Court.
Although on the involvement of Congress Party in the assassination,
DRK soft peddled on a number of leads perhaps because he did not want
political controversy to put roadblocks on his investigation as a
whole. The Justice J. S. Verma Commission, which was set up as the
last official act of the Chandrashekhar government before demitting
office on June 21, 1991, did find that the Congress leaders had
disrupted the security arrangements for the Sriperumbudur meeting.
The Commission wanted further probe into it but the Rao government
rejected that demand. In the meantime under Sonia's pressure, the
Jain Commission was set up by the Rao government, which tried to
muddy the waters and thus exonerate the LTTE. But the trial court
judgment convicting the LTTE came earlier, and that sinister effort
too failed.
Nowadays, Sonia is quite unabashed in having political alliance with
those who praise Rajiv Gandhi's killers. No Indian widow would ever
do that. My investigations into Sonia's involvement in Rajiv's
assassination is therefore still on. I am also author of a best
seller titled Assassination Of Rajiv Gandhi,Unasked Questions and
Unanswered Queries [published by Konark in 2000] in which I have
given some indications.
Is it not significant that the political career of Sonia Gandhi
advances concomitantly with a series of assassinations and apparently
accidental deaths? How did Sanjay's plane nosedive to a crash and yet
the fuselage not explode? There was no fuel! Why was there no inquiry
conducted? Is it not a fact that Indira Gandhi died because of loss
of blood from the wounds and not directly due to a bullet impacting
her head or heart? Then is it not strange that Sonia had insisted
that the bleeding Indira be driven to Lohia Hospital -- in the
opposite direction to AIIMS, which had a contingency protocol set up
for precisely suchan event? And after reaching Lohia Hospital, did
not Sonia change her mind and demand that they all drive to AIIMS
thus losing 24 valuable minutes.
The same kind of mystery surrounds the sudden deaths of Sonia's other
political roadblocks such as Rajesh Pilot, Jitendra Prasad, and
Madhavrao Scindia. Such things happened in the dark ages in Italy.
Should we allow it India like dumb cattle?
What Can We Do?
We have to ensure that the Maino clan does not stay in power. Dr.
Manmohan Singh may be PM, which is a small relief, but he is not a
fighter. The real power in government today is wielded by the Maino
mafia gang. Can they be dethroned?
In Indian democracy, only a shocking scandal can unseat a government
other than by losing majority. Today's priority is not for toppling
the Congress government as such since Manmohan Singh is a decent and
scholarly person, but in driving the Maino clan out of India. It will
however not be long before Sonia will give Manmohan Singh marching
orders, and he will march out meekly. We should not expect him to
resist.
With Sonia's defacto government in place, it is also unrealistic to
expect that I can get an early victory in the courts on the KGB and
antique smuggling cases.
The most potent weapon therefore to dislodge the Maino clan
[including Rahul and Priyanka] is by exposing their Italian
citizenship. In 1992, Sonia revived her citizenship of Italy under
Article 17 of the Italian Citizenship Law [Act 91 of 1992]. Rahul and
Priyanka were born Italian citizens because Sonia was Italian when
she gave birth to them [Italian law based on jure sanguinis]. Hence,
they continue be Italians since they never renounced it. Both have
been traveling abroad on Italian passports. They may now acquire
Venezuela passports since Rahul's girl friend Veronica is a
Venezuelan. That means one more foreign bahu for us tolerant Indians.
The Maino-Gandhis are certainly getting globalized. So what can
patriotic Indians do?
There is an urgent need to document these facts on notarized paper,
for which we need a network in London, Milan, Hongkong and Venezuela.
Those persuaded by my above stated facts and arguments may join in
and help set up this network.
Westminister Bank and Hongkong & Shanghai Bank, London accounts, but
most of it found it's
Patriotic Indians should thank the President of India for having the
courage by citing a legal hitch to dissuade Ms. Sonia Gandhi from
staking her claim to form the government in May this year. She
therefore did not as expected on May 17th become the Prime Minister
of 1 billion plus people of India. It can now be said that the nation
has been saved from a monumental, devastating, and permanent injury
to India's national interest and patriotic psyche of Indians. And
therefore every effort that can be made in a democracy should be made
to ensure that Ms. Sonia Gandhi is permanently out of reckoning for
any public office. For those who instinctively understand that, this
Note is to explain the factual basis for this conclusion, and suggest
what patriotic Indians can do now.
My opposition to Ms. Sonia Gandhi is not merely because she is
Italian --born. In other democratic countries, including in Italy,
such an issue [of foreign-born aspiring to be head of government]
would not even arise at all because the issue has already been
settled by law, that a person cannot hold the highest public office
unless he or she is native born.
In India there is no such law, but the President according to my
knowledge, correctly acted on a proviso to Section 5 of the Indian
Citizenship Act[1955] which empowers the Union Home Ministry to lay
down conditions that apply to Indian citizenship acquired by
foreigners by registration, which conditions would be based on the
principle of reciprocity, viz., in Ms Gandhi's case such of those
conditions that apply to Indians on becoming citizens of Italy would
apply to her.
The President reportedly told her that if she insisted on being
invited to form the government, he would want first to clarify, on a
reference to the Supreme Court, whether in view of this proviso her
appointment as PM could be successfully challenged in the court. It
is fair to assume that this report of the President's decision, is
correct since the President had before him my petition dated May 15,
2004 making just that point -- that Ms. Gandhi's citizenship is
conditional, and in particular she cannot be the PM legally. The
President had also given me an appointment at 12.45 PM on May 17,
2004 to explain my submissions in person, which I did. I also told
him that I would challenge such a constitutional appointment in the
Supreme Court just as I had in 2001 when the Tamil Nadu Governor
illegally swore in Ms Jayalalitha as Chief Minister.
In that case, the Supreme Court had after hearing me and many other
institutional luminaries, upheld my contention that mere majority in
the House is insufficient for being sworn in to a constitutional
office. There must be no disqualification as well. Ms. Jayalalitha
had therefore to step down because she was disqualified by a
conviction handed by a trial court in the TANSI corruption case filed
by me as private complaint [she subsequently was acquitted by the
Madras High Court, and hence became eligible the next year]. I also
cited to the President a 1962 Allahabad High Court case, which held
that this proviso in the Citizenship Act was binding and lawful.
The nation in the Sonia matter has thus got an unexpected but
temporary reprieve, a reprieve received not only because her
citizenship of India by registration is not equal to one by birth
even by Indian law, but also a reprieve more because of what national
security risk was averted. To comprehend that risk, we must first
understand who Sonia Gandhi really is and what danger she, her family
and her friends in Italy hold for India's national security.
Even for an Indian born citizen, we find it difficult to know a
person's true background, but for an Italian born it is extremely
hard because of the remote access for most people to Italy in
language and familiarity. This note is about that danger that Sonia
represents to the nation, which the people need to know.
