Sonam Made Up Story of Being Kidnapped & Drugged: Meghalaya Police
The investigation into the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi, a businessman from Indore, on his honeymoon trip in Meghalaya has taken a dramatic turn. The prime accused in the case, Sonam, has been rejected by the police for her claims of being kidnapped and drugged. According to the East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police (SP), Vivek Syiem, Sonam fabricated the story to avoid arrest.
Raja Raghuvanshi was found dead in his hotel room in Shillong, the capital city of Meghalaya, on January 4. An FIR was registered, and an investigation was launched. The police soon zeroed in on Sonam, Raja’s wife, as the prime suspect. Sonam claimed that she was kidnapped and drugged by unknown persons on their honeymoon trip, and Raja was murdered by the same individuals.
However, the police have now rejected Sonam’s claims, saying that she had concocted the story to avoid being arrested. “She knew that Raj Kushwaha, one of the accused, was being investigated and would be arrested, so she came up with the story that she was kidnapped and drugged,” SP Syiem said in a statement.
The police investigation revealed that Sonam was having an affair with Raj Kushwaha, one of the other accused in the case. This revelation has further strengthened the police’s suspicion that Sonam was involved in the murder of her husband.
The police also found that Sonam had a history of making false claims. In the past, she had made similar claims of being kidnapped and harassed, but they were never substantiated. This led the police to believe that she was prone to making up stories to get attention or to cover her tracks.
The investigation also revealed that Sonam had a motive to kill her husband. The couple had a troubled marriage, and Sonam was seeking a divorce. Raja had also filed a case against Sonam for domestic violence.
The police have arrested Sonam and three others, including Raj Kushwaha, in connection with the murder. The investigation is still ongoing, and the police are working to gather evidence and build a strong case against the accused.
The rejection of Sonam’s claims by the police has sent shockwaves through the community. Many are shocked that a woman could make up such a bizarre story and try to deceive the police. The case has also raised questions about the reliability of eyewitness accounts and the importance of forensic evidence in crime investigations.
The investigation into Raja’s murder has also highlighted the importance of domestic violence and the need to take such cases seriously. Raja had filed a case against Sonam for domestic violence, but the case was never taken to its logical conclusion. This highlights the need for stronger laws and better enforcement of existing laws to protect victims of domestic violence.
In conclusion, the case of Raja Raghuvanshi’s murder has taken a dramatic turn with the rejection of Sonam’s claims by the police. The investigation has revealed that Sonam was having an affair with one of the accused and had a motive to kill her husband. The case highlights the importance of forensic evidence and the need to take domestic violence cases seriously. As the investigation continues, it is likely that more shocking revelations will come to light.
