In a remarkable historical development, Russian intelligence released secret documents revealing a shocking and different narration of the end of Adolf Hitler, 80 years after the fall of Berlin.
The documents, published by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), claim that Hitler did not commit suicide as it is common, but was executed with a bullet in the head launched by a chief of his personal service by direct order from him, which is radically contradictory to the traditional narration that says he shot himself after swallowing a “Sianide” capsule, according to the newspaper “Sun”.
This narration is based on the testimony of the first team in the Nazi police, Hans Rattenhusir, who stated in front of the Soviet investigators that Hitler, because of his doubts about the effectiveness of poison as a result of the large number of medical injections he was receiving, ordered his servant Heinz Ling to shoot after eating. According to the testimony, Lingh was executed immediately.
Although this testimony appeared in the West during the Cold War, it was then classified as part of the Soviet War, especially as it contradicts the statement of Lingh himself, who assured the Soviets that Hitler actually committed suicide, for fear of falling into the hands of the allies after the collapse of the third Reich (the German Empire).
The documents, which were removed from, also included pictures of Hitler’s charred teeth residues, which showed evidence of his eating “Sianide”, and the last known image was attached to him, in addition to detailed statements from those close to him in his last days inside the hideout.
In a photographer broadcast by a Russian historian, the detailed certificate made by Lingh, which included even accurate details of Hitler and Eva Brown’s clothes during the moment of their death.
The historian stated in the recording: “Hitler was aware that there was no point in continuing the fighting. His psychological and physical condition was very deteriorating, and he was afraid that he was arrested while trying to escape. His delusions of greatness prevented him from thinking about surrendering or negotiating with the victors. ”
The documents also showed how the Soviets pressed Otto Gonche, the personal assistant of Hitler, to extract his testimony. After his capture, Gonche was transferred to Moscow, where he was placed in a cell with a former Nazi named Colonel Remingger, he was assigned to persuade him to cooperate.
“We convinced him that Hitler’s suicide and deep transformations in Germany have freed him from the loyalty of the leader. With the fall of the Nazi regime, his testimony became merely a matter of historical value.
The documents were completed by a narration from the Soviet Army’s “Smirch” unit, stating that they found two charred bodies in the Reich Consulting Park, one of whom is believed to belong to Hitler.
By May 8, 1945, the first criminal report related to the identity of the body was completed.
Despite the different novels, Hitler’s end remains a mystery that opens wide doors for interpretation, in light of the contradiction between Western accounts and Soviet reports that are still surprising the world to this day.
