Most Shocking Crimes: Umesh Reddy, a serial killer and rapist, terrified Karnataka’s capital city Bengaluru and other places during the late 1990s and early 2000s with his heinous acts against women. Reddy was part of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), but was dismissed from service following a molestation case in 1997.

From teenage girls to married women, Reddy spared none in his brutal spree. Convicted in nine case, he reportedly confessed to the rape and murder of 18 women. According to an Indian Express report, many of his victims were homemakers targeted between 11 am and 3 pm, after their husbands left for work.

Besides Karnataka, where he found most of his victims, Reddy is believed to have raped, robbed and killed women in Gujarat and Maharashtra, reported The Week.

Murders and rapes, however, were not the only reasons that mounted pressures on the police. He also escaped custody more than once, before his final arrest in 2002.

Reddy is currently lodged in Bengaluru Central Jail. He was shifted there last year after the Supreme Court, in 2022, commuted his death sentence to a 30-year-prison term.
