Indian tailor murders 33 truck drivers

A tailor from India's Bhopal has confessed to killing 33 truck drivers across the country, making him one of India's most prolific serial killers.

Adesh Khamra, 48, told police officials that he befriended the truck drivers at food stops, and after drugging them he strangled them with a knotted rope. He murdered these drivers and their helpers over the past eight years.


Khamra was nabbed last week following an investigation into the murders of two truck drivers. Initially, police officers had no idea they had caught a man who has killed people in at least four states.

According to officers, Khamra had extraordinary recall of the murders.

“He remembers every little detail about everyone he has killed. The victim’s last meal; where they ate; what they wore; where and how he was killed; and where exactly the body was dumped,” one officer told The Times of India. “The details are bloodcurdling. The postmortem reports tally exactly with where he said their injuries were.”

Friends and neighbours were shocked to know of Khamra's arrest, as he was a seemingly mild-mannered man.

Khamra reportedly called his gang members that he killed the drivers to free them from their hardship.

“They lead hard lives. I am giving them mukti [release], freeing them from pain,” Khamra reportedly said.

Tulsi Gabbard seeks criminal probe into officials behind Trump's impeachment

  • Gabbard has referred the Trump impeachment whistleblower and former intelligence watchdog Michael Atkinson to the Justice Department for criminal investigation
  • The released documents identify no specific crimes, and Gabbard admits she is "leaving it up to the lawyers" to determine what laws were broken
  • The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee warns the move will "chill future whistleblowers"

THE director of National Intelligence in the US, Tulsi Gabbard, has sent criminal referrals to the Justice Department seeking investigations into the whistleblower whose complaint led to president Donald Trump's first impeachment in 2019, as well as the former intelligence community watchdog who handled the case.

The referrals, confirmed by a spokesperson for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and first reported by Fox News, target the still-anonymous whistleblower who raised concerns about Trump's July 2019 phone call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
