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.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.

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

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.
