Australian women go wild over ‘hot inmate’ who wants to meet a ‘beautiful’ lady – not knowing he’s committed one of the most heinous crimes imaginable

  • Tunja is behind bars for murder
  • A callout was posted on social media for pen pals

A ‘hot inmate’ has sent Australian women wild after a call went out on social media for someone to be his pen pal – while he is behind bars after being convicted of murder.

A photo of Tjay Tunja was uploaded to a private Facebook group in a hopeful attempt to get someone to write to him.

“No crimes against women or children,” the message read.

‘I would like to correspond with beautiful ladies.’

Although Tunja proved to be a popular pen pal, it is believed that many of the women who responded were unaware of his criminal past.

“I like to keep him company,” said another.

“Jesus, can I join him in his cell?” read another comment.

Tunja had left Mr Biram with a twelve-centimetre wound to his neck before fleeing the scene.

He denied committing the crime but was found guilty in September 2011.

Tunja appealed the decision in 2013, but his bid was rejected.

He remains in Victoria’s Barwon Prison, a maximum security prison.

He will be eligible for parole in 2030.
