SERIAL KILLER WITH THE MOST KILLS SERIAL

What happened over the next few months is the stuff of a stomach-churning drama involving a psychopathic and manipulative serial killer whose crimes were never conclusively proven (in spite of the human remains discovered in his house), bungled police investigations, the never-ending wait for justice of grief-stricken parents, and a city gripped by fear. That was the last time anyone saw Kaka alive. His brother left in search of another job - it wasn’t uncommon for them to work like this. Kaka was told to go inside to meet the boss: a small, bespectacled man with neatly parted hair named Javed Iqbal. Together, they zigzagged through the streets and went down a narrow lane to a house numbered 16-B on Ravi Road, located just a few minutes’ walk from the Minar-e-Pakistan monument. “Our boss needs a massage and he’ll pay you double the price if you come with us,” Kaka’s brother later recalled one of the boys telling them. One day in October, Kaka and his brother were approached by two boys in the gardens of Minar-e-Pakistan, the site where Muslims gathered in 1940 to demand a separate homeland. Sometimes, the men also would take them to their bedrooms. Men paid them for head and shoulder massages. The brothers were Shia Muslims and they wore ankle bracelets studded with shiny stones. They roamed the streets in worn-out sandals and hung out in parks, clinking colourful bottles of ointment to get the attention of customers. He and his older brother - both in their teens - were masseurs. Tasleem Ullah, 14, Abdul Majeed, 16, Zeeshan Nazir, 13, and Dilawar Hussain, 15, all went missing over the next few months - all of them among dozens of teenagers from poor families who were lost in the labyrinth of Lahore’s historical streets.Īmong the missing boys was Ejaz Muhammad, lovingly called “Kaka” by his family. It shouldn’t have taken Faraz Khan, another teenager, more than a few minutes to get back from a nearby grocery store where he had gone to buy some flour. His parents never saw him again.Ī few weeks later, Shakeel Hassan, 13, said his morning goodbyes as he stepped out for school. He worked at a workshop where children his age spend long hours folding cardboard into paper boxes, earning meagre wages to support their families. On the morning of July 9, 1999, Faisal Razzaq, just nine years of age, left his home in one of the many overcrowded neighbourhoods of Lahore, a city in Pakistan’s Punjab province. New film on his life and crimes renews interest in the man who committed suicide in jail in 2001. On the trail of Javed Iqbal, one of the most prolific and less-studied mysopeds of our time.
