MADHUKAR ZENDE THE SUPER COP MAN WHO CAUGHT CHARLES SOBHRAJ IN GOA

Zende's journey in the Indian Police Force commenced in the year 1959 and posttraining he was posted to Mumbai Police as PSI (Police Sub Inspector) laying the foundation for an illustrious career. Through relentless determination and tireless diligence, he ascended the ranks to become Assistant Commissioner of Police in Mumbai. However, this ascent was far from smooth; it was a testament to Zende's resilience in navigating a landscape fraught with peril and adversity. Along the way, e aced formidable adversaries such as the notorious Dons of Mumbai, Haji Mastan, and Karim Lala, ensuring their apprehension and restoring order to the city's streets. Zende's imposing stature and commanding presence instilled a sense of apprehension in those who dared challenge the law. These attributes were instrumental in his relentless pursuit of Charles Sobhraj, marked by daring exploits and unwavering resolve. Join us as we uncover the untold chapters of Madhukar Zende's remarkable journey-a testament to the indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to justice that define a true exemplar of law enforcement excellence.

Madhukar Zende's connection to Goa was solidified on the day he apprehended the notorious Bikini Killer, Charles Sobhraj, at the renowned restaurant "O Quoquiro' nestled in Porvorim, North Goa. Reflecting on this pivotal moment, Zende reminisced about his earlier encounter with Sobhraj back in 1971, in the bustling Fort area of South Mumbai. It was there that Sobhraj's grand scheme of a major robbery was thwarted, laying the groundwork for his eventual capture. "The arrest of Charles Sobhraj in 1971 is the culmination of another tale," Zende recounted. According to him, the arrest stemmed from the apprehension of a minor offender named "Ajay Modi, a petty criminal, committed theft within his own home, prompting his mother to seek justice," Zende elaborated.
