Narrowed it down to 2.0 or an M&P Pro with night sights. But I'm having a hard time figuring out, other than the night sights, what the difference is. Does the new 2.0 have the same trigger as the Pro series has had for awhile? The 2.0 looks awesome, not sure the price difference for the Pro series is worth it.

Raghav went on a killing spree for over three years in the 1960s, casting a spell of fear over the entire city. Parks and streets emptied out at dusk and in many areas, nervous residents armed themselves with sticks and patrolled the streets. There were several incidents in which beggars and homeless men were badly assaulted by panicky crowds. The murders took place in two lots – the first between 1965 and 1966 when 19 people were attacked. The second round of killings took place in 1968, and on 27 August, a sub-inspector from Mr Kulkarni's team recognised him from photographs and descriptions given by those who had survived his attacks.[4]

A series of murders occurred in the outskirts of Mumbai in August 1968. Pavement and hutment dwellers were bludgeoned to death while they slept. All the murders took place at night and were committed using a hard, blunt object.[2] A similar series of murders had taken place a few years earlier (1965–66) in the Eastern suburbs of Mumbai. In that year, as many as 19 people had been attacked, out of which 9 victims had died.[2]
At the time a suspicious looking man found loitering in the area, had been picked up by the police. His name was Raman Raghav, a homeless man, and had past mentions in the police files, having spent five years in prison for robbery. As no solid evidence could be found against him for the new set of crimes, the police let him go. When the killer struck again in 1968, the police launched a manhunt for him. Ramakant Kulkarni, then the Deputy Commissioner of Police CID (Crime) took over the investigation and spearheaded a massive combing operation in the city.In this attempt, the police were successful in arresting him. In his confession, he admitted that he had murdered 41 people in 1966 along the GIP (Great Indian Peninsular Railway as the Central Railway (India) was then known) line and almost a dozen in 1968 in the suburbs. However, it is likely that he killed many more. There was widespread public anxiety and panic in Mumbai. Inhabitants of slums and apartments dreaded sleeping out in the open or with open windows and balconies.
Arrest[edit]
Sub-inspector of police Alex Fialho recognized Raghav from obtained reports and descriptions from those who had seen him. Fialho searched for him and detained him with the help of two respectable witnesses from the area. He claimed to be Raman Raghav, but old records disclosed that he had several aliases including 'Sindhi Dalwai', 'Talwai', 'Anna', 'Thambi', and 'Veluswami'. The suspect had, in his possession, a pair of spectacles, two combs, a pair of scissors, a stand for burning incense, soap, garlic, tea dust and two pieces of paper with some mathematical figures. The bush shirt and the khaki shorts that he had been wearing were bloodstained and his shoes extremely muddy. His fingerprints matched with those on record and confirmed that he was Raman Raghav alias Sindhi Dalwai. He was arrested under section 302 Indian Penal Code on charge of murder of two persons; Lalchand Jagannat Yadav and Dular Jaggi Yadav at Chinchawli village, Malad, Greater Bombay.[5]
Investigation and trial[edit]
The preliminary trial was held in the court of Additional Chief Presidency Magistrate. For a long time, Raghav refused to answer questions. However, he began to answer their questions after the police fulfilled his request for dishes of chicken to eat. He then gave a detailed statement, describing his weapon, and his modus operandi. After this the case was committed to Sessions court, Mumbai.
When the trial started in the court of Additional Session Judge, Mumbai on 2 June 1969, the counsel for defence made an application that the accused was incapable of defending himself on account of unsoundness of mind and he also submitted that even at the time of committing the alleged offences the accused was of unsound mind and incapable of knowing the nature of his acts or that they were contrary to the law.
For weeks after he was arrested, Raman refused to answer any questions. He remained silent and said that no torture methods would be successful on him. Of all the tricks in the book, it was a chicken dish that made Raman talk. While in the lock-up, Raman requested for Chicken curry. After weeks of interrogating him, the police decided to give in to his request. After finishing his chicken curry, Raman invited the officers to ask him whatever they wished to ask. It took fulfilling a few more wishes before the police got to know everything they wanted. Tv pilot 2 1 000. Raman confessed to committing 41 murders. Post his confession, he took the police force on a citywide tour to show the places he operated in and to obtain the rod he had hid in the northern suburbs. The accused was therefore sent to the Police Surgeon, Mumbai, who observed him from 28 June 1969 to 23 July 1969 and opined that,
'The accused is neither suffering from psychosis nor mentally retarded. His memory is sound, his intelligence average and [he] is aware of the nature and purpose of his acts. He is able to understand the nature and object of the proceedings against him and [is] not certifiably insane.'
With this medical opinion, the trial proceeded. The accused pleaded guilty. During the trial a psychiatrist of Nair Hospital, Mumbai was cited as a defence witness. He had interviewed the accused in Arthur Road Prison on 5 August 1969 and gave evidence that the accused was suffering from Chronicparanoid schizophrenia for a long time and was therefore unable to understand that his actions were contrary to law.
In defence, it was said, 'The accused did commit the act of killing with which he is charged. He knew the nature of the act, viz. killing human beings, but did not know, whether it was wrong or contrary to law'. The Additional Sessions Judge, Mumbai, held the accused guilty of the charge of murder and sentenced him to death. Raman declined to appeal. Before confirming the sentence, the High Court of Mumbai ordered that the Surgeon General of Mumbai should constitute a Special Medical Board of three psychiatrists to determine whether the accused was of unsound mind and, secondly, whether in consequence of his unsoundness of mind, he was incapable of making his defense.

The members of the Special Medical Board interviewed Raman on five occasions for about two hours each time. In their final interview when they bade him good bye and attempted to shake hands with him, he refused to do so saying that he was a representative of 'Kanoon' (Law) who would not touch people belonging to this wicked world. The examination report was as follows:
'Details about childhood history are not available. No reliable history about mental Illness in his family is obtainable. According to the data available, He was always in the habit of stealing ever since he was a child. He hardly had any school education. He was known to be reclusive. Since his return from Pune in 1968 he had been living in jungles outside the suburbs of Mumbai.'[5]
'X-rays of skull, routine blood examination, serological tests for syphilis, cerebrospinal fluid examination including tests for syphilis, urine and stool examination and EEG examination were non contributory. He was of average intelligence and there is no organic disease to account for his mental condition.'
'Throughout the five interviews he showed ideas of reference and fixed and systematized delusions of persecution and grandeur. The delusions which the accused experienced were as follows:
- That there are two distinct worlds; the world of 'Kanoon' and this world in which he lived.
- A fixed and unshakable belief that people were trying to change his sex, but that they are not successful, because he was a representative of 'Kanoon'.
- A fixed and unshakable belief that he is a power or 'Shakti'.
- A firm belief that other people are trying to put homosexual temptations in his way so that he may succumb and get converted to a woman.
- That homosexual intercourse would convert him into a woman.
- That he was '101 percent man'. He kept on repeating this.
- A belief that the government brought him to Mumbai to commit thefts and made him commit criminal acts.
- An unshakable belief that there are three governments in the country - the Akbar Government, the British Government, and the Congress Government and that these Governments are trying to persecute him and put temptations before him.'
The final verdict[edit]
Raghav's sentence was reduced to life imprisonment because he was found to be incurably mentally ill. He was lodged at Yerwada Central Jail, Pune, and was under treatment at the Central Institute of Mental Health and Research. When a panel of doctors who examined him at the directive of the High Court found that he would never be cured, the High Court reduced his sentence to life imprisonment in its judgement of 4 August 1987. A few years later, in 1995, Raghav died at Sassoon Hospital. He had been suffering from kidney failure.
In Popular culture[edit]
Indian filmmaker Sriram Raghavan produced a 70-minute short film on Raman Raghav, starring Raghuvir Yadav in the lead role.
The 1978 Tamil movie Sigappu Rojakkal was reportedly loosely based on Raghav.[6] The movie was dubbed in Telugu as Erra Gulabilu. It was remade in Hindi as Red Rose starring Rajesh Khanna and also in Japanese as Red Roses and in Russian as Krasnyye Rozy. Raman Raghav 2.0, a Bollywood film, is about a fictional serial killer who cites Raman Raghav as his inspiration, directed by Anurag Kashyap and starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the titular role.
