• 174. The Case That Broke India | Baby Falak

  This is the story of one baby, left broken and battered at a Delhi hospital, who went on to change India. To know more about this case, watch Delhi Crime Season 3, now on Netflix! Some stories don’t begin with a murder. They begin with a mystery — a baby found broken, bruised, and fighting for her life in one of the country’s best hospitals… and no one knowing who she belongs to. A mystery that seems like it will be simple enough to solve. Or so the city believed — until investigators uncovered a truth far more disturbing than neglect. Because this baby wasn’t discarded by a cruel mother. She was stolen from one. And that mother? She wasn’t hiding. She was trapped. Sold. Trafficked. When Delhi Police finally found her, miles away in Rajasthan, what emerged was not just the story of a mother and her missing children — but the story of an entire trafficking machine humming beneath our feet. A machine involving pimps, fake relatives, forged marriages, disappearing children, and a web of criminals stretching from Bihar to Delhi to Rajasthan. And at the center of it all… a baby without a name. This is the story of baby Falak.

A stretch of forest that feels… wrong. For years, whispers have floated through the town — about what was found there, about who might have done it, about how something so horrific could stay hidden in plain sight. It’s a story that begins not with a person, but with a mystery buried deep in the trees. And what lies within it would change American criminal investigation forever. This is the story of that lonely forest, that secret buried within it, and the one man behind it. This is the story of the Bear Brook Murders.For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios Join our YouTube family: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/joinFor fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Aryaan https://www.instagram.com/aryaanmisra/Aishwarya https://www.instagram.com/aishwaryasinghs/To buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studios

  Order our book, Desi Crime, available now on Amazon:https://amzn.in/d/0WyttKWGet the audiobook with our lovely voices: https://www.audible.in/pd/B0FK4L77SY?source_code=ASSORAP0511160007 In the summer of 1994, a quiet suburban street in Bellevue, Washington, became the site of something so brutal, neighbors would remember the sound of sirens long after the blood had dried. Inside a well-kept family home, three lives were taken in a single night — a crime so savage it seemed personal, yet so calculated it felt rehearsed. And when the dust settled, suspicion didn’t fall on strangers lurking in the dark, but on the people who had called that house home. This is the story of that once calm Washington home and the lives taken inside it. This is the story of the Rafay murders.For extra episodes, early access, silly bloopers, subscribe at: https://www.patreon.com/thedesistudios Join our YouTube family: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnbfV0YvrxWMq3h0hmo13Jg/joinFor fastest updates, follow our socials at: https://www.instagram.com/desicrime/Aryaan https://www.instagram.com/aryaanmisra/Aishwarya https://www.instagram.com/aishwaryasinghs/To buy Desi Studios merch, visit: https://kadakmerch.com/collections/desi-studios
