Vikram Kartik

An aging and successful local trader. He is Greg's main drinks supplier. Vikram is finding it harder to work physically and obtain stock economically, especially when demand is more than supply during the full moon festival. He is thinking of retirement due to back pain. It is unclear how or if he is related to Anton, the young teacher.

He finds the missing dog-tags on the beach, which Lydia recognises as belonging to the mystery man at the hospital. She demands them in exchange for her medical diagnosis of "cervical spondylosis", a condition in the spine at the neck.

He can speak some English but not fluently, so perhaps had a lower level of education. He build is short and tubby. He has grey body hair but is still black on his head, which may be dyed. Greg's replacement supplier is AJ, using the ambulance to progress past security points unchecked.
