Sonam Made Up Story of Being Kidnapped & Drugged: Meghalaya Police
The investigation into the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi, an Indore-based businessman, took a dramatic turn recently with the Meghalaya Police rejecting the claims made by Sonam, the prime accused in the case. According to the police, Sonam fabricated a story about being kidnapped and drugged to cover up her involvement in the crime.
The investigation into Raghuvanshi’s murder began after his body was found on a honeymoon trip to Shillong, Meghalara, with his wife, Sonam, who is now the prime accused in the case. Sonam had claimed that she was kidnapped and drugged by unknown assailants on the night of January 8, and that she had no recollection of the events that followed.
However, East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police (SP) Vivek Syiem has rejected Sonam’s claims, stating that she had concocted the story to avoid being arrested. “She knew (Raj Kushwaha) is being investigated and would be arrested, so she came up with the story that she was kidnapped and drugged,” Syiem said in a press conference.
The police investigation revealed that Sonam was having an affair with Raj Kushwaha, a friend of Raghuvanshi’s, and that she had planned the murder with him. Sonam had allegedly convinced Kushwaha to kill Raghuvanshi, who was getting suspicious of their affair.
The police also found evidence that suggested Sonam had been planning the murder for some time. “We found a diary of Sonam’s, where she had written about her plan to kill Raghuvanshi. She had also made a list of people who could help her, including Kushwaha,” said Syiem.
The police investigation also revealed that Sonam had made several suspicious transactions in the days leading up to the murder. “We found that Sonam had withdrawn a large amount of money from her account and had made several transactions in cash. This suggests that she was trying to cover her tracks,” said Syiem.
In addition to the financial transactions, the police also found evidence of a love affair between Sonam and Kushwaha. “We found several messages and calls between Sonam and Kushwaha, which suggest that they were in a romantic relationship,” said Syiem.
The police have now arrested both Sonam and Kushwaha in connection with the murder. Sonam is currently in police custody, while Kushwaha is being held at a local jail.
The case has sent shockwaves through the community, with many people expressing outrage over Sonam’s alleged involvement in the murder. “It’s unbelievable that someone could plan and commit such a heinous crime,” said a local resident. “I hope the police take strict action against Sonam and Kushwaha.”
The investigation is ongoing, and the police are working to gather more evidence and build a strong case against the accused. The outcome of the case will be closely watched by the community, with many people eager to see justice served.
