    204. Murder in Monte Sereno | Raveesh Kumra

    On the night of the 29th of November 2012, in the same California county, two men ended up flat on their backs about ten miles apart. One of them was 66 years old, from a small town in Punjab. He got into IIT Delhi, then got on a plane to America in 1970 and built success. That night he was lying on the floor of his own seven thousand square foot mansion, in one of the safest towns in the United States, with tape across his mouth. The other was twenty-six. He was homeless. He had been homeless most of his life. That night he was lying on the pavement outside a corner shop in downtown San Jose with enough alcohol in his blood to stop a person breathing. The two of them had never met. Neither knew the other existed. By morning, one of them was dead and the other one was going to be charged with killing him. This is the story of the murder of Raveesh Kumra.

    203. The Orkut Murder | Adnan Patrawala

    It's the 18th of August, 2007. A Saturday. And in a flat in Lokhandwala, in Andheri, a 16-year-old boy is sitting at a computer, doing what every teenager in India is doing that year. He's on Orkut. And in this boy's messages, tonight, like most nights for the past 3 weeks, is a girl. Her name is Angel. Angel is flirty. Angel is funny. Angel keeps saying they should meet. And the boy is interested, but he's being smart about it. Before anything else, he wants one thing: a photo. Send me a photo. And Angel keeps dodging. Week after week. A teenage standoff, playing out one scrap at a time. Until tonight. Because tonight she sends him a message: "Don's worry? m quite and gud looking. u wanna meet me??? Lez mette up na! wot say?" This is the story of the boy that said yes to a date that would turn out to be his last. This is the story of Adnan Patrawala.

    202. The Gangster and the Juror | Peter Gill & Gillian Guess

    By the mid-1990s, Vancouver’s Indo-Canadian underworld was no longer operating quietly. Young gangsters were threatening each other on television. Brothers were being shot in traffic and left dead in alleyways. Their names were becoming larger than the crimes attached to them, turning into a strange mixture of warning, legend and aspiration. But one of the most extraordinary stories from that world did not begin with a drug deal, a revenge killing or a man walking into a nightclub with a gun. It began inside a courtroom where six men stood trial for executing two brothers at the centre of Vancouver’s growing gang war. Outside it, bodies were continuing to fall. This is the story of a juror, a gangster and a murder trial that became almost as scandalous as the underworld it was supposed to judge. This is the story of Gillian Guess, Peter Gill, Bindy Johal and the Dosanjh Brothers.  For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios   Join our YouTube family: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/join   For fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Aryaan https://www.instagram.com/aryaanmisra/Aishwarya https://www.instagram.com/aishwaryasinghs/   Order our book, Desi Crime, available now on Amazon:https://amzn.in/d/0WyttKW   To buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studios Hosted on Acast.

    199. Murder on Barker Street | Tay Lyang & Tony Chuan

    In September 2003, three young Singaporean students were sharing an ordinary apartment in Sydney. They were far from home, studying in Australia, living the kind of life that many international students know well. But one morning, inside their apartment, everything changed. Two of them would never make it out alive. At first, the case seemed to point outward-- to strange sightings and possible intruders. But as investigators looked closer, the story became far more complicated. Timelines shifted. Suspicions changed. And a case that seemed like it should have a clear answer became one of the most unsettling double-murder mysteries in Sydney. This is the case of Tay Chow Lyang, Tony Poh Chuan and Ram Puneet Tiwary. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
