Indische Serienmörder: Der Schlächter Von Delhi

This could have been a great series. The case itself is very interesting. Unfortunately it was poorly executed in a documentary series. It seems to trail off in the first part of the second episode.

Many are commenting/blaming Indias Justice system and policing for their low rating score - placing biase and cultural difference aside, regardless of a case like this, we have to be mindful and remember there are "failures" of justice in any part of the world; the ones in which we live are not superior. Every justice system is in a never ending journey of evolving and growing as our world changes.

Plot of the story is good but stretched tooo much and bad direction. This could have been a better outcome if it were shown with some more data. Only letter is evidence and nothing.

A three part series detailing the gruesome murders of Chandrakant Jha, The Butcher of Delhi.

I was really looking forward to this series, it really is a fascinating, gruesome case. A killer, who got away with his crimes for a long time.

Overall, it's a pretty satisfying watch, you learn about the killer, his motives, his loathing of The Police, and it's a great looking show, the re-enactments look pretty good.

It's worth watching to learn about the shocking crimes, definitely the stuff of nightmares.

However, it's a very frustrating watch, it's literally like trying to herd cats, as there are so many strands, so much information is delivered, but it jumps about in the most frustrating way, you will definitely need extra caffeine if you're planning to binge watch it, as it can be a little hard to keep up.

The running order for the series is maybe a little questionable, you get the crimes and learn who in episode one, then you get the backstory in parts two and three, I'm not fully sure that worked.

It's pretty good, but could have been so much better, 6/10.

This a show that proves how incompetent Indian criminal system is - case would have solved mid way, all they had to do is install a Cctv camera at the spot but instead they couldn't even do that. Any one from foreign watching this will laugh on this that half of crime solves in India if they simply install CCtv cameras. It even shows police is not even trained to speak to criminals, rather they were seen questioning him nonsensical way. A country with this dense population should have huge numbers of cctv. Its pathetic to watch it clearly the criminal was highlighting the basic common sense faults of our police. For god sake Install a cctv camera.

Netflix ultimately brings the serial killer craze to India's capital with a somewhat lesser known case of a man targeting the police and judicial systems with a string of murders. This three-part documentary expounds his brutal deeds, while subtly (and effectively) showcasing the oversight of the Delhi police in deciphering and catching the perpetrator. The larger chunk of essential information lies in the first couple of episodes, while the third serves as a filler-piece except for the portion where the family members of a victim are interviewed.

But when you look at the work as a whole, while I appreciate Ayesha Sood's hard-boiled approach, it lacks the memorability. The evidences presented are scarce, and since we don't get to hear any insights from the criminal himself (except for already-published, short TV interviews) or his immediate family, it is difficult to objectively read the guy. Some of his victims are barely even mentioned to add to his menacing mystique. At an overall viewing duration of 2 hours, it's always worth catching if true crime interests you!
