The Cleaver Man Who Butchered Baghdad
This episode explores the dark and disturbing story of Hatem Kazem, infamously known as “Abu Tobar”. Once a dismissed police officer and former pilot trainee, he evolved into a calculated serial killer who turned his own family into a coordinated robbery and murder ring.
Operating in 1970s Baghdad, he targeted affluent households with chilling precision, allegedly using his wife’s work as a domestic helper to gather intelligence before carrying out attacks. His crimes intensified when he struck near the presidential palace, but a surviving witness ultimately provided a crucial description that led to his identification. Arrested in 1974 and executed in 1976, his capture brought an end to one of the most terrifying criminal sprees in Iraq’s modern history.
