Sometimes, when Indians move to foreign countries, they migrate with dreams in their heart, stepping away from everything they’ve ever known only to be able to live a better life.

But 2 decades later, every dream they ever came with was going to come crashing down the night their son disappeared. This is the story of that night. This is the story of Pravin Varughese. For

104. Why this nun’s MURDER was UNSOLVED for 28 years?...

The Desi Crime Podcast ·

2024/02/24

Justice delayed is justice denied. This is a phrase embedded within the very being of every judicial system in the world. Or, at least it should be. Yet the essence of this phrase is sometimes hard to live by. Sometimes comes before us a case so shocking yet so convoluted that not years but decades pass by without a shred of justice. Such is the case of a 21 year old nun from Kerala. A woman whose brutal death in 1992 remained unsolved till December of 2020. This is the story of Sister Abhaya. Buy

Take a second and think about your mom. You probably smiled a little just now. Everyone’s mom is their life’s singlehanded superhero. Countless pieces of song, film and poetry have been dedicated to moms; it’s a relationship like no other and all dads seem to know they come a close second. So what happens when that very same mom, the one you’d take or fire a bullet for, spirals down into a path of sinister crime, and decides to take you along with her? This is the story of one such mother whose life

Home is supposed to be your safe haven; your bed, the thing you crave coming back to at the end of a long day. Your parents, the people you’d take or fire a bullet for. Between the four walls of a home and around the people you love, exists most of your life. That was all true for 13 year old Aarushi. Little did she know, though, on the night of 15th May, in that very home, those very people were about to conspire to commit murder…her murder. And they were going to succeed, making sure she never saw

2024/01/27

This is the story of the man who created India’s first crime show: every week he was on television screens around the nation narrating the exploits of the most devious criminals of the time, until January 10, 2000, when he found himself at the center of a criminal investigation. The difference was, he was no longer researching or hosting this case, but instead living it – in the eyes of the police, the man that covers murder for a living, had just covered up the murder of his own wife.

Where do you feel the safest in the world? For most of us, the safest place on Earth will be within the four corners of our home. It is the certainty of intimately knowing your surroundings, with its many variables, that makes us feel safe at home. I know that the ringing of the doorbell at 10 PM is the guard asking me to move my car, or tapping sounds are from a pipe I have procrastinated to get fixed. The chances of something going wrong in my own home is minimal, almost impossible. That’s why

These suicides, those of Jiya Khan, Pratyusha Banjerjee, Sushant Singh Rajput, Tunisha Sharma and more, weren’t just stories of people who gave up on their lives. They were stories of crime, corruption, power, politics and our country’s criminal underbelly that led these young people to death.

The cases you usually hear on true crime podcasts, the ones we usually cover, have a clear perpetrator and a clear victim. One person is in the wrong, the obvious suspect, the “villain” in the case. One person is innocent, the one who has been wronged and whose justice we long for. But then come cases that flip on their head our conception of wrong or right, good or evil. Today’s story is of one such case. It is a case of a woman, abused, tormented and emotionally tortured until she snapped. This is

1 bath tub, 3 dead bodies. A marriage in turmoil. A feverish lover. The house on 20 Grass Tree Close, Bridgeman Downs, Queensland Australia holds all the answers. On 22 April 2003, the police are summoned to decrypt this mystery. Clues lay scattered around the residence. But less physical evidence awaits them. The people evidence comes first. A debaucherous father, a complicit mother, and the vendetta of their enemies in Fiji stand in contrast to the wrath of one man – Max Sica. Who killed Neelma

Home. A word that denotes haven, tranquility and family, but it often transforms into a hell for many. Houses are fascinating, take the cement structure of a home that hides away tales and tragedies, musings and maladies, all while standing upright and resolute. From the outside, a house can cast a certain image and connotations. A tin-roofed hut in a slum for example connotes suffering, ailment, a sick child being nursed by an even sicker mother, wreaking sewage. On the other hand, a grand mansion
