On April 6, 1944, Charles Sobhraj, also known as Charles Gurumukh Sobhraj Hotchand Bhawnani, was born to Tran Loang Phun and Sobhraj Hatchard Bavani.
He was a French serial killer, con artist, and robber who preyed on Western tourists visiting South Asia in the 1970s while they were on the hippie trail. Across the 1970s, Charles Sobhraj murdered a large number of individuals in Asia.
Charles Sobhraj, who was imprisoned in various nations, acquired the moniker “The Serpent” as a result of his frequent police detentions and successful escape attempts.
The suspected killings of Sobhraj are covered in detail in the eight-part crime thriller “The Serpent,” which will be broadcast on BBC One and Netflix in 2021. It reveals how, despite escaping law enforcement for years, he allegedly drugged, robbed, and killed visitors around Asia.
After being captured by the Nepal Police in 2003, Charles Sobhraj was given a life sentence for the 1975 murder of an American citizen in Nepal. On December 21, 2022, Nepal’s highest court issued an order releasing him due to his advanced age and failing health.
