He was dubbed the "bikini killer" in Thailand, and "the serpent", for his evasion of police and use of disguises. O , opens new tab and BBC joint production released last year. While in prison, Sobhraj married Nihita Biswas, a Nepali woman 44 years his junior, in 2008.
Suddenly I saw the police gathered around a body — the naked, burned corpse of a young white woman. The body was charred, except for the head. Sobhraj claimed that he was sentenced without a trial and appealed against the judgment. Later, his lawyers announced that Chantal Compagnon his wife was filing a case against the French government before the European Court of Human Rights for not aiding her husband. Charles Sobhraj being escorted to his hearing in Nepal In 2008, he announced that he was engaged to Nihita Biswas , daughter of the lawyer of Charles, Shakuntala Thapa, who had met Charles as a translator between Charles and her mother. The next day, the Nepalese jail authorities dismissed the claims, saying that they only performed a tika ceremony, which is a part of Bada Dashmi. At first, the Supreme Court of Nepal postponed the verdict of appeal by Charles against the judgment of the district court. On July 10, 2010, the Supreme Court upheld the verdict against Charles.
Charles received a life imprisonment sentence with an additional one year, a fine of Rs. Nihita Biswas has often claimed that Charles had never been convicted of any murder and called out to media for tagging Charles as a serial killer. They were charged and sent to judicial custody for contempt of court. As of April 2021, Charles is in poor health condition in a Nepali jail. Charles loves reading and writing. He spent most of his time in prison reading books and made sure that he was provided with books. In Tihar Jail in Delhi, he even had a library for himself. He is a student of psychology. Charles is a martial arts fanatic and could do Karate, which he often used to defend himself in prison. Charles Sobhraj is known for his luck with women, both in and out of jail.
When he was in a Delhi prison, he was flirting with his lawyer Sneh Sengar. Simultaneously, he was wooing dozens of women, including a Madrasi woman whom he sent a marriage proposal. He was once engaged to two women at the same time; Jacqueline Kuster, a German imprisoned on drug charges; a Punjabi woman who fell in love with Charles after reading the book on him. Sobhraj is also known for his provocative choice in lawyers. Reportedly, the assassin had met Charles before the incident, and together, they plotted the assassination. She even claimed to have never loved Charles. After all these years, what I can say is that this girl had a very very sad, abominable destiny. During the promotions of the book, Farrukh told that he was once associated with Sobhraj, who Sobhraj was friends with Masood Azhar the founder of the Islamic terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed JeM. According to Farrukh, Sobhraj apparently rescued Masood from goons in jail, who had beaten him to a pulp, during their stint in Tihar jail. After that, Masood became very dependent on Sobhraj.
In 2018, Charles Sobhraj was in a critical state and was operated on multiple times, receiving several open-heart surgeries. At his apartment in Bangkok, he owned a pet monkey who he had named Coco. In 2012, the O Coqueiro restaurant in Goa inaugurated the statue of Charles Sobhraj, which is placed just 10 ft.
Life sentence in Nepal means 20 years of imprisonment. Sobhraj had filed a petition claiming that he was kept in jail for more than necessary. After this, the division bench of the apex court pronounced this order. There is a legal provision to release prisoners who have completed 75 percent of their sentence in jail and have shown good character during this period. Through his petition, Sobhraj had claimed that he had completed his jail term in view of the relaxation given to senior citizens in Nepal.
He is thought to have mostly targeted young backpackers on the hippie trail and also became known as the Bikini Killer as the bodies of several female victims were found in swimwear. Thailand issued a warrant for the arrest of Sobhraj in the 1970s on charges of drugging and killing six women, all wearing bikinis, on a beach at Pattaya. However, he was jailed in India before he could stand trial on those charges.

Charles Sobhraj
Собрадж против хиппи За этот период его жизни Собраджа называют ярым ненавистником культуры хиппи. В те годы он принял участие в серии ограблений туристов на так называемой тропе хиппи. Традиционно из европейских городов путешественники отправлялись в Стамбул, откуда тропа шла двумя маршрутами первый — в Иран, Индию, Непал и дальше на юг, второй — в Сирию, Иорданию, Ирак, Иран и Пакистан. В Пакистане трассы объединялись и уводили путешественников в Бангкок и Шри-Ланку. Убивать людей Собрадж вместе с время от времени присоединяющимися к нему сообщниками начал в Таиланде, где оказался после очередного бегства от правосудия. За период до 1976 года, когда он наконец был арестован, ему вменяли порядка 12 убийств хотя в итоге были доказаны только два.
Почти всеми его жертвами предположительно были сообщники, которые могли шантажировать его обращением в полицию. Свое прозвище Бикини-киллер он приобрел из-за того, что часть его жертв находили мертвыми именно в таких купальниках. Змеем же он стал за то, как искусно долгие годы избегал длительного заключения.
Его жертвы были задушены, избиты или сожжены, и он часто использовал паспорта своих жертв-мужчин, чтобы переезжать из страны в страну. Ранее, в конце августа суд Бельгии освободил подельницу и жену серийного убийцы, педофила и маньяка Марка Дютру Мишель Мартен. Ее вместе с мужем арестовали 13 августа 1996 года. Женщина, согласно приговору, должна была провести в местах лишения свободы 30 лет, однако спустя 16 вышла условно-досрочно.
После выхода на свободу жил в париже, а в 2003 году он вернулся в Непал. К пожизненному заключению его приговорили за убийство двух человек. Reuters отмечает, что полицейские стран Азии подозревают Собраджа в убийстве 20 западзых туристов.
While on the flight to Doha, he insisted to an Agence France-Presse journalist that he was "innocent".
Posing as a gem trader, he would befriend his victims, many of them Western backpackers on the 1970s hippie trail, before drugging, robbing and murdering them. I have a lot to do. I have to sue a lot of people. Including the state of Nepal," Mr.
Sobhraj told AFP on Friday onboard the plane.
