How @Swamy39 stalled the Bofors case to aid the corrupt Gandhis

Did you know?

In 1990, Subramanian Swamy, the then Law Minster in PM Chandra Shekhar Singh's govt., aided in burying the country's biggest ever corruption case: The Bofors Scandal

1/n
Mr @Swamy39 dismantled the key 3-man special investigating team (SIT), who were pursuing the Bofors case since past 11 months

The very next day, Swamy accepted ASG Arun Jaitley's resignation from the SIT which included Bhure Lal, JS at PMO & K. Madhavan, CBI Joint Director

KTS Tulsi was government's counsel as ASG under @Swamy39 & representing CBI against the Bofors case started fighting the case against CBI's interests.

K Madhavan, the CBI officer, risked his job to stop KTS Tulsi from the conceding Bofors case in favor of fraudsters.

3/n
Madhavan wanted to withdraw KTS Tulsi, who had gone into a 'self-destructive & suicidal' mode

@Swamy39 kept defending Tulsi, who was aiding to scuttle the Bofors investigation & instead accused Madhavan of acting "in a highly irresponsible manner"

4/n
On several occasions, Swamy has regarded KTS Tulsi as "India's greatest lawyer", a "man of integrity" & his friend

Now the question is, why @Swamy39's friend & an ASG in his Law ministry fought to bury the Bofors investigation?

Not much of a question, is it?

5/n
Swamy's support to Rajiv Gandhi & the Bofors scam was not just limited to this.

Today when Congress & Gandhis themselves don't defend Bofors, Swamy is still standing by his corrupt 'friend'!
