Crimes Tales from the Raj
News of the Times Episode 376 | 1873 - 1889
In today’s episode, we are exploring three murder cases from India during the British occupation – otherwise known as the period of the Raj.

Our first case involves a highly respected and well known priest and his activities with a married young girl that leads to murder.  The case is remembered to this day.

Our second case is a short story regarding the death of a nine year old bride.

Our third case involves a Prince and the sudden death of his young wife.

As an extra, we have a historic story from Persia recounting the unique form of execution known as gatching form a reporter on the scene.

Three tales of murder and scandal from the Raj is today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
