The Desi Crime Podcast

Mountains have a rapport for mysteries and hauntings. It’s as if all the world’s eeriness finds refuge in these hill stations. Folk tales of spirits and serial killers run amok. But there is one hill station in India in particular which is infamous for mishaps and mysteries. Every year, there is some story about a haunting, kidnapping and even murder taking place here. This is the story of a small hilly town in Maharashtra where kids don’t step out after sundown, this is the story of the mysterious murder in Matheran.

[RECAST] Beginning next week, we will be releasing the new slate of Desi Crime episodes. We spent the last month researching and writing new scripts, hence been uploading video versions of older episodes. Can't wait for y'all to watch some of the upcoming bangers. Stay crazy, stay desi!When we cover these cases, the ones that hit the hardest are the ones where we can clearly see there was deep rooted and long lasting injustice. Cases where those responsible for protecting us, our parents, our schools, our police, are the ones who are the perpetrators of this injustice. If you feel this way too, this case is your worst nightmare come to life; a nightmare one 14 year old girl had to live through 31 years ago. This is a case that shook India to its core. This is the story of Ruchika Girhotra.

[RECAST EPISODE] The case that we have for you today is as much about the crime as it is about what happened following the crime. It is about death as much as it is about life. It is about morality and ethics and the society we seek to create as much as it is about punishment and sentences and justice. A case that will come to be discussed for generations now in every Indian class on the law. This is the story of a 25 year old nurse and the one night that changed it all. This is the story of Aruna Shanbaug.

In part 1 of the story of Rajneeshpuram, you heard the story of Bhagwan Rajneesh’s life and his move to the US to a sleepy little town outside of Oregon. You heard the story of his unprecedented town takeover and the all out culture war he now found himself in the middle of. By the year 1983, the residents of Rajneeshpuram and Antelope were armed against each other and more dangerous than ever before. As this culture war would unfold, crimes would unfold too, making the plot more sinister and macabre. And to hear this story unfold, welcome back to part 2 of the story of Osho.

Imagine you’re living in a small middle town in the state of Oregon in 1981. Living in a ranching town with just about 50 people, you were most probably white. Life was quiet and life was simple but life was good for you there. Until one day, something seemed different. Cars and people, including Rolls Royces show up at your small sleepy town. And the people seem different— dressed in reddish orange robes, they chant music, hold ceremonial events, even have the roads around them closed off, and from there things only get weirder and scarier and more illegal. This is the story of one such sleepy American town and the one man who changed it all. This is the story of Osho. For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios or join our YouTube family https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/joinTo buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studiosFor fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Want our content in video formats instead?

This email was sent to 11 people on the campus. The recipients included a student and some authorities. It was sent by a second year sociology student named Anuj Kumar. The email was titled, ‘S#c#de Note.’ This case shocked students across Indian Universities. Is it that easy to bring a gun inside a college campus? Why did Anuj Send that video? Why was Sneha killed?

On the midnight of 23rd November 1993, a family’s massacre jolted Shubham Apartments in the Dum Dum region of Kolkata. When the cops arrived the scene of crime, they realized there was one survivor, 16 year old Sajal Barui. Soon, that notion changed. According to India’s Juvenile Justice Act, a person under the age of 18 is viewed as a minor, and is tried as such when they commit a crime. But there are a few rare cases that blur the moral distinction between a child and an adult, a minor versus a mature person, a kid as opposed to a killer. On the midnight of 23rd November 1993, those lines were blurred forever.For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios or join our YouTube family https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/joinTo buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studiosFor fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Want our content in video formats instead?
