About this audiobook
It is the 1970s. Mumbai is in the underworld's vice grip. Film stars, businessmen, traders and the common man-no one is safe from the mafia's greed and wrath. But a determined, intelligent and no-nonsense policeman is about to bring them to justice ... without ever firing a single bullet.
Assistant Commissioner of Police (Retd) Madhukar B. Zende is best-known for his sensational arrest of the serial murderer Charles Sobhraj, aka the Serpent. He is also lauded for successfully managing the violent riots in Mumbai that broke out in the aftermath of the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1993, and ushering in an era of peace.
But Zende has many more stories of crime and justice under his belt, and in this book, he gives readers a glimpse into what it meant to be a cop in the seventies and eighties. From the puzzling case of the murder of Shanta Devi to the kidnapping of a famous movie mogul to the capture of dark luminaries like Arun Gawli, Karim Lala, Haji Mastan and Babu Reshim, Mumbai's Most Wanted is a riveting account of a supercop who brought some of the city's most dreaded villains to their knees.
