Several high-profile murder investigations involving spouses or romantic partners, including the Sonam Raghuvanshi and Muskan Rastogi cases, have sparked nationwide debate. While attracting intense media attention, each prosecution must ultimately be decided solely on legally admissible evidence presented before the courts.
The Supreme Court sought Sonam Raghuvanshi’s response to Meghalaya’s plea seeking cancellation of her bail in the alleged honeymoon murder case. The State challenged bail orders passed by the trial court and High Court, with the matter now listed for hearing on July 9.
Siya Goyal and her friend Chetan Chaudhary, accused of murdering her fiancé Ketan Agarwal at Pune’s Lohagad Fort, were remanded to police custody till June 29. The court granted custody to enable further investigation into the alleged conspiracy and murder.
During the hearing in the RSS leader Srinivasan murder case, the NIA told the Kochi court that the banned outfit PFI had prepared a hit list of 977 people, including a former Kerala District Judge.
Authorities are probing Sonam Raghuvanshi’s alleged conspiracy to murder her husband, Raja Raghuvanshi, just days after their wedding. Following a six-hour phone call with her lover, Raj Kushwaha, both were arrested along with three accomplices. Raja was found dead on June 2, with investigations ongoing to detail the conspiracy.
