The Cyanide Killer | The case of Anitha Mulya
It's morning at the bus stand in Hassan, in south India. A 22 year old woman is standing at a bus stop… next to the man she thinks she's about to marry.
He hands her a small pill. He tells her it's a contraceptive... she should go into the ladies' toilet and take it there, with a bit of water from the tap.
So she does. And while she's in there, he walks away.
He goes back to the lodge where they spent the night, picks up the jewellery she left in the room, and gets on a bus home.
The pill was cyanide.
