The Netaji mystery gets curiouser and curiouser.

On Tuesday, old photographs of Netaji Subhas Bose's family were found among the belongings of Faizabad's Gumnami Baba, who many believe was Netaji living incognito. The photographs were in a box belonging to Baba and were retrieved from the Faizabad district treasury in Uttar Pradesh, where they had been stored all these years.
