He led a life of luxury inside the jail, with TV, and gourmet food, having befriended both the guards and the prisoners. He would walk in and out of jail whenever he wanted.[citation needed] Revelling in his notoriety, he gave interviews to Western authors and journalists, such as Oz magazine's Richard Neville in the late 1970s, and Alan Dawson in 1984. He freely talked about his murders, while never actually admitting to them, and pretended that his actions were in retaliation against Western imperialism in Asia, an excuse which most criminologists find highly doubtful.<BR/><BR/>source: wikipediaHappy Kittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14406399936808407736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108332737182280632.post-29903288488019558882008-09-18T07:17:00.000+05:302008-09-18T07:17:00.000+05:30LOL, Raji!

Can even imagine Raja saying it with vigorous nods of the head, hands and a wide smile!!<BR/><BR/>My favourite is the Long Distance.<BR/><BR/>I saw the link... a case of truth is stranger than fiction?<BR/><BR/>Reminds me of the reaction of an IAS officer to one of Sekar's outrageous fictional takes on the goings-on in the govt and bureaucracy.
