The Australian in Indira's Tihar compound: When Sonia Gandhi carried lunch for Charles Sobhraj's girlfriend
On Christmas Day in 1978, Sonia Gandhi brought a homemade lunch to Tihar Jail for her mother-in-law. Indira Gandhi, a former Prime Minister, was imprisoned during a turbulent political period. The meal was extended to include prison guards and a fellow inmate related to a notorious killer. Despite resistance, Sonia felt compelled to keep family traditions alive during this difficult time.
