The secret to Gandhi's leadership was discovered to actually be an Apple of Eden. How Gandhi acquired the Apple remains unknown, though the Templars killed him in order to obtain it. On 30 January 1948, Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated, with the bullet hitting him directly in the chest.[3]

Further information on his assassination was also uncovered further by members of the Initiates and compiled in a database the following year.[2]
