French 'serial killer' Charles Sobhraj, responsible for multiple murders in the 1970s across Asia, left for France on Friday after being freed from a 20-year spell in a Nepali prison, reported France24.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court of the Himalayan nation ordered the release of Sobhraj on the grounds of old age and deteriorating health conditions.
