No Humanity Left: The Awful Life And Crimes Of Javed Iqbal, Killer Of 100 Boys

 In less than a year, Javed Iqbal, a middle-aged Pakistani man, allegedly raped and killed 100 young boys and teenagers, taking advantage of apathetic attitudes towards poor children to commit his disturbing crimes. Many of Iqbal's victims weren't reported missing to police until months after they had disappeared, making it possible for him to take 100 lives before law enforcement even learned the young boys had vanished. 

When this Pakistani serial killer's crimes came to light, parents of missing children desperately tried to learn if their sons had died at the hands of Iqbal, forcing mothers and fathers to sort through evidence taken from the murderer's home.

After he turned himself in and was convicted of the killings, Iqbal was given a severe sentence designed to subject him to the same merciless acts he'd visited on 100 children. Even after he died in prison, Iqbal is remembered as one of the worst serial killers who murdered boys, making him a dark figure in Pakistan's history.

 Even though Javed Iqbal had sent confessions to the police and press, surrendered himself at a local newspaper, and left a mountain of evidence in his home, when it came time for him to stand trial for murdering 100 children,Initially, he said he’d confessed to the murders because he wanted to draw attention to the dangers experienced by children living on the streets of Pakistan, as well as the country’s lack of concern for the plight of people living in poverty.

Later, Iqbal changed his story again, and he testified that 20 of his friends had murdered the children in his home, and he’d confessed to the killings because he felt guilty for not saving the young boys’ lives. He also said he’d admitted to the murders because he thought it was the only way he could make the police aware of the brutal killings perpetrated by his friends.  

However, on March 9, 2000, Iqbal changed his story yet again, instead telling the court that none of the children had actually been murdered and denying any crime had actually occurred. However, the judge presiding over the trial wasn’t convinced by Iqbal's latest story.
