The Rolling Stones song - Sympathy for the Devil - includes this guy; "And I laid traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reach Bombay"

I stand corrected. Sobhraj didn't start killing on the Hippie Trail until the mid '70's and this song was produced in '68.

The song came out in the 60s. He started murdering in the 70s. Unless the Stones time traveled, remain curious. He was a small time non-notable non-famous burglar at the time of the song coming out.

Keith Richards mixed his Dad’s ashes in with some coke and did lines. I’m not ruling out time travel.

I don’t know if I can count Mick out on that one but fair play. Thanks, Chief.
