Father of accused woman in husband's murder case claims her innocence, demands CBI probe, while family of deceased seeks justice.
The father of an Indore-based woman, who has been accused of hiring men to kill her husband during their honeymoon in Meghalaya, on Monday (June 9, 2025) claimed his daughter was "100% innocent" and demanded a CBI probe into the matter.
A relative of deceased local transport businessman Raja Raghuvanshi also said they cannot believe his wife Sonam Raghuvanshi was behind his murder, but if she is proved guilty, she should be given the harshest punishment.
He said Ms. Sonam Raghuvanshi made a video call to her brother on Sunday (June 8, 2025) night following which Raja Raghuvanshi's family informed the Uttar Pradesh police about her presence in that State.
Indore resident Raja Raghuvanshi was allegedly killed by men hired by his wife during their honeymoon in Meghalaya, DGP I. Nongrang said on Monday (June 9, 2025) morning.
Speaking to PTI, she said the woman surrendered before the police in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur, while three other assailants were arrested in overnight raids.
Raja Raghuvanshi and his wife went missing while vacationing in Meghalaya's Sohra area on May 23. His body was found in a gorge on June 2.
Ms. Sonam Raghuvanshi's father, however, refuted the police's claims.

“Judicial time is a valuable public resource. Every frivolous or misconceived invocation of constitutional jurisdiction results in diversion of time from genuinely deserving litigants,” said the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court while imposing a cost of ₹50,000 on a man from Theni district who filed a petition with an unusual prayer: permission to conduct daily protests till the ‘World War’ ends.
