New Delhi: The Zee News Editor-in-Chief Sudhir Chaudhary was the first Television journalist to get the most wanted killer Charles Sobhraj on camera. On the completion of 26 glorious years of Zee News, Editor-in-Chief Sudhir Chaudhary shared a mini-clip from the year 1995 where he's seen taking a byte of Charles Sobhraj, a notorious serial killer who is said to have murdered over 20 people.

In the video, it is quite evident that Sobhraj was not willing to speak or connect with him. However, with weeks of the chase, eventually, the dreaded criminal broke his silence.

Sudhir Chaudhary in a very erudite way handled the situation and made ways into Charles' mind. Later, Sobhraj also sought after Zee News and tried to convey his side of the story.
