He is thought to have mostly targeted young backpackers on the hippie trail and also became known as the Bikini Killer as the bodies of several female victims were found in swimwear.

Все, что нужно — грамотно дурить людей и не сожалеть об этом. Особенно хорошо ему удавалось обманывать женщин.
Девицы были от него без ума. Но больше всех его чарам поддалась Шанталь Компаньон. Молодая парижанка из очень консервативной семьи забыла обо всем, чему учили ее строгие родители, и без раздумий согласилась стать женой юного взломщика и не самого удачливого угонщика автомобилей. Он помещен был в тюрьму значит, Компаньон — его супруга — его все-таки дождалась, будучи очарована его так называемой вот криминальной аурой, харизмой и его вот влиянием на нее.
Она же и с ним уехала, многие преступления как раз совершали они вместе, а впоследствии она от него родила дочь, и она от него уехала", — рассказал юрист Капштык. Шанталь уверяла — они с мужем мошенничали, обманывали, крали, но никогда не убивали. Парочка орудовала в Индостане и Кабуле. Там Чарльза арестовали, и верная супруга помогла ему сбежать из-под стражи.
Но после этого их пути навсегда разошлись. Компаньон вместе с дочерью Ушу вернулись во Францию. И с тех пор никогда не общались с Собраджем. Он отправился в Таиланд, где встретил новую подругу — канадку Мари-Андре Леклерк.
Она стала для Чарли не только верной спутницей, но и надежным сообщником. Им предъявили обвинение по заявлению группы французских туристов, которым подмешали наркотики, пытаясь выдать за признаки дизентерии и обещая якобы лечение. В частности, Леклерк была приговорена к 12 годам тюрьмы, впоследствии отпущена досрочно, уехала в Канаду по месту своего постоянного проживания", — поделился информацией юрист Капштык. К тому моменту в разных странах Собраджа уже обвиняли в нескольких убийствах.
Его первой жертвой стала молодая туристка из Сиэтла Тереза Ноултон. Ее тело выловили в Сиамском заливе. Мертвую девушку нашли в ярком купальнике. И в прессе убийцу тут же окрестили "бикини-киллером".
На самом деле утопленниц на счету Чарльза было всего две. Чаще он травил туристов, а потом сжигал их тела. Но журналисты упорно звали преступника "охотником за бикини" или "змеем". Якобы он, как ядовитая рептилия, сначала гипнотизировал своих жертв, а после безжалостно избавлялся от них.
Ведь он точно знал — искать этих людей начнут не скоро.
Его жертвы были задушены, избиты или сожжены, и он часто использовал паспорта своих жертв-мужчин, чтобы переезжать из страны в страну. Ранее, в конце августа суд Бельгии освободил подельницу и жену серийного убийцы, педофила и маньяка Марка Дютру Мишель Мартен. Ее вместе с мужем арестовали 13 августа 1996 года. Женщина, согласно приговору, должна была провести в местах лишения свободы 30 лет, однако спустя 16 вышла условно-досрочно.
Известный как Змей за свой талант притворяться и обманывать, преступник стал персонажем большого количества книг и статей материал их авторам он часто сообщал сам.
Проведя 21 год в тюрьме, он заработал 15 миллионов долларов, получив их за фильм, основанный на его жизни. Фильм был снят британской телекомпанией BBC. В отличие от большинства преступников, Чарльз Собрадж не совершал свои убийства из неконтролируемых, глубоко укоренившихся агрессивных импульсов, которые испытывают многие серийные убийцы. Это больше воспринималось как побочный продукт его образа жизни, но все же широко распространено мнение, что он страдает антисоциальным расстройством личности или формой психопатии. Ранее был обнаружен самый кровавый серийный убийца в американской истории.

Традиционно из европейских городов путешественники отправлялись в Стамбул, откуда тропа шла двумя маршрутами первый — в Иран, Индию, Непал и дальше на юг, второй — в Сирию, Иорданию, Ирак, Иран и Пакистан. В Пакистане трассы объединялись и уводили путешественников в Бангкок и Шри-Ланку.

За период до 1976 года, когда он наконец был арестован, ему вменяли порядка 12 убийств хотя в итоге были доказаны только два. Почти всеми его жертвами предположительно были сообщники, которые могли шантажировать его обращением в полицию.
Свое прозвище Бикини-киллер он приобрел из-за того, что часть его жертв находили мертвыми именно в таких купальниках. Змеем же он стал за то, как искусно долгие годы избегал длительного заключения. Звезда в камере Своим поведением в тюрьме Собрадж был не менее известен, чем преступлениями на воле.

Charles Sobhraj is seen being escorted to a courthouse in October 2003. Authorities plan to deport him to France once he walks out of prison. Sobhraj was sentenced for the 1975 murders of American Connie Jo Bronzich and Canadian Laurent Carriere in Nepal — and is suspected of a litany of crimes in the 1970s across several countries, including Afghanistan, India, Thailand, Turkey, Nepal and Iran. Sobhraj spent 20 years behind bars in India for attempting to poison and rob a group of French students in 1977.
One such early crime happened when he used his half-brother, Andre, to rob a shopkeeper for him. In 1963, he served his first jail sentence for burglary at Poissy prison near Paris. At Poissy prison, while others in jail lived in bad conditions, he manipulated his prison officials into granting him special favors such as keeping books in his cell.
Charles got close to Felix and accompanied him, which helped him get close to high society life in Paris after he was paroled. He lived two different lives, one with the people of high society and the other in the Parisian underworld. The day Charles proposed Compagnon to marry him, Charles was arrested on charges of car theft and sent to Poissy prison.
Eight months later, he was released from his prison, and the same day, Charles and Compagnon married. Sobhraj left France with his wife, fearing French authorities; Compagnon was pregnant at that time. They both faked documents and looted travelers along the path in Eastern Europe.
In 1970, the couple fled to Bombay, where they welcomed their daughter, Usha Sobhraj. Charles wanted to start a new life for his daughter, but he could not leave the path of crime and involved himself in a car theft and smuggling business. In 1971, Charles and his wife fled to Kabul, where he began making contacts for gun smuggling.
He then fled to Rawalpindi, Pakistan, where he is believed to have stolen a car by drugging the driver to death. Around this time, he reportedly had a curio shop in Bangkok, which he used to lure his victims and then steal their belongings by drugging them, sometimes to death. In 1973 in Delhi, he was arrested after his unsuccessful attempt at armed robbery at a jewelry store at Hotel Ashoka.
He was imprisoned and sent to Tihar prison in Delhi. After a fortnight in prison, he escaped prison after faking appendicitis; his wife helped him in this. Charles Sobhraj being taken to hospital after he faked appendicitis to escape jail He then began robbing the travelers on the hippie trail between Europe and Eastern Asia.
After he fled to Kabul, he was arrested and kept at an Afghan prison, where he faked appendicitis again and fled. This time, he did not take his family along and left them in Kabul. His wife, Compagnon, was enraged by his illegal activities and she pledged to never meet him again.
He was then joined by his brother, Andre, and both of them carried out robberies in Greece and Turkey. Andre was arrested in Athens after an identity-switch hoax went awry; Andre was left behind to serve an 18-year prison sentence. Charles became her tour guide in India.
After some time, he moved to Thailand and became a drug dealer and gem seller. It was at the same time that he created his plan to build his criminal family. Charles lured Marie-Andree to join him in Thailand.
Marie was lovestruck and became his first follower in his criminal family or clan. Charles Sobhraj with Marie Andree Leclerc To gather more followers, he designed a new con; he selected his victims, created problems for them, and became their savior. He lured his tourists to his den, an apartment complex called Kanit House in Bangkok, Thailand.
After he made the tourists his followers, he would steal from them. In one case, he helped two French policemen, Yannick and Jaques, recover their passports, stolen by him.
The court ordered Sobhraj, who had heart surgery in 2017, should be released on health grounds after serving more than three-quarters of his sentence for murdering a US tourist and a Canadian in Nepal in the 1970s. Posing as a gem trader, he would befriend his victims, many of them Western backpackers on the 1970s hippie trail, before drugging, robbing and murdering them.
Suave and sophisticated, he was implicated in his first murder, a young American woman whose body was found on a beach wearing a bikini, in 1975. He was arrested in India in 1976 and ultimately spent 21 years in jail there, with a brief break in 1986 when he drugged prison guards and escaped. He was recaptured in the Indian coastal state of Goa.
