The boyfriend of the Indore woman arrested for allegedly killing her husband during their honeymoon in Meghalaya was seen consoling her father when the victim’s body was brought home.
Raja Raghuvanshi, 29, was hacked to death as part of a conspiracy by his wife Sonam and her boyfriend Raj Kushwaha, police have said. Both Sonam and Raj, along with three contract killers, have been arrested.
Amid peak curiosity over the honeymoon murder, Raja’s influencer sister Shrasti has been releasing photos and videos linked to her brother and the arrest of her sister-in-law on Instagram.
One such video showed Raja with Sonam’s father, Devi Singh; Shrasti, who has nearly 4 lakh followers, has captioned it, “Raj Kushwaha was seen with Sonam’s father at Raja’s house.”
The murder came to light on June 2 during a search for the couple that had gone missing on May 23 on their way to a tourist spot in Meghalaya. Raja’s body was found with machete injuries but there was no trace of Sonam.
Sonam surfaced another week later in UP’s Ghazipur with different police versions suggesting different circumstances that led to her arrest.
Sources in Meghalaya Police claim Raj and Sonam had hired three contract killers, Vikash, Anand, and Akash, to eliminate Raja. In an extensive manhunt, the three were then rounded up from Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.
