Shadow of the Cobra

BBC One
on BBC One London

A two-part film telling the chilling story of one of the world's most wanted mass murderers based on The Life and Crimes of Charles
Sobhraj by RICHARD NEVILLE and JULIE CLARKE. Starring
1: In 1977 two young journalists were given the assignment of their lives: to interview Charles Sobhraj - Asia's most wanted criminal - and write a book about his life. Above all they had to find the truth about Sobhraj. They paid little heed to a warning from a person who knew him well: 'Sobhraj has only two categories of people - accomplices and victims. You must be one or the other'.
