But in July of 2025, a story would emerge that threatened to turn this sacred ground into a crime scene. A story that suggests for years, while pilgrims prayed for salvation, others were being buried in shallow graves. It began when

Under the soft orange wash of a Rishikesh dusk, the air held its breath. A girl, nineteen, bright-eyed, new to the city and newer still to her first job, walked the narrow paths of Vanantra Resort, hemmed in by forest on one side and the rush of the Ganga canal on the other. It was the kind of evening where the world feels hushed, the kind where ordinary things--like a phone ringing unanswered or a light flickering on and off--begin to feel loaded with meaning. And for days after that dusk, the only

2025/07/05

A chill wind whispered through the sugarcane fields of Uttar Pradesh, carrying with it the scent of rigid traditions belonging to a bygone era. In villages where life moved with the seasons and ancient customs held strong, a new tension was starting to build. For generations, the idea of freedom for women, the freedom to choose, to be, to experience the world around them as men would, was a forbidden thought, a dangerous secret. But in 2014, as the world outside moved faster, even these quiet places

The Desi Crime Podcast ·

2025/06/21

"If you don’t hear from me… they’ve killed me.” Those were a girl’s words. Not in a dramatic diary entry, not to a friend over a cappucino, but in a cold, trembling text to the boy she loved. She was eighteen. Eighteen and afraid — of the very people who gave her life. So when the sun rose on a quiet field in northern Italy nearly six months later, and a search dog started barking over a shallow patch of soil — no one said it out loud, but everyone standing there already knew whose body they were

2025/05/24

The year is 1966. Mumbai, the city of dreams, is dreaming. By day, the city was bustling. But by night, Mumbai's heartbeat changed. Families in the northern suburbs whispered warnings, doors were bolted earlier than usual, and some streets grew eerily silent. Because someone was hunting. Quietly. Brutally. On the sidelines, a young and enigmatic police detective had just taken over the city’s Crime Branch. And what he stepped into was not just a murder investigation — it was a descent into a

The platform at Howrah station is always loud. It crackles with the sound of steel, hurried footsteps, impatient whistles. But every so often, something moves within that noise. Something evil. On a cold November afternoon in 1933, a young heir passed through that tide. Surrounded by family, on his way home to a princely estate, he walked — as so many around him did. And like so many others, he might have forgotten the bump of a shoulder, the brush of a sleeve, the feeling of a moment too fast to

2025/05/15

In a small town in Maharashtra, bodies started showing up one by one. A girl found near a lake. Another dumped behind a temple. Then a woman. Then a child. For over a year, people whispered. About a tree, about blood, about sacrifices. But the police kept treating each case like it stood alone. A murder here, a tragedy there. Until January 4th, 1974 — when someone saw it happen. Not the aftermath. Not the body. The act itself. And with that one eyewitness, the silence of Manvat broke.
