Wife told alleged lover she 'didn't like husband getting intimate' days before killi
Meghalaya honeymoon murder
Ghazipur: Sonam Raghuvanshi, who is accused of murdering her husband Raja Raghuvanshi during their honeymoon in Meghalaya, had allegedly conspired with her lover to carry out the killing just three days after their wedding.
In her chat with her alleged lover, Raj Kushwaha, Sonam told him that she did not like her husband getting intimate with her, India Today quoted its sources as saying.
She further revealed that she had distanced herself from Raja even before their marriage.
According to the sources, Sonam discussed her plan to murder Raja shortly after the wedding, indicating she had deliberately chosen a remote location to carry out the crime. The couple had married in Indore on May 10 and traveled to Meghalaya for their honeymoon, arriving there on May 21.
The case took a grim turn when Raja was found dead in a deep gorge in a forested area near Cherrapunji, following a search operation launched after the couple was reported missing. Local police later confirmed that Raja had not died accidentally, as initially speculated, but had likely been murdered.
Meanwhile, Raja's mother, Uma, claimed that prior to the wedding, her son had expressed concerns about Sonam's lack of interest in him and had even considered calling off the marriage. When Uma confronted Sonam about it, she reportedly explained that she had been preoccupied with work and had not had time to communicate with Raja. “But after that, she began speaking to my son. The honeymoon plans were made by Sonam,” she added.
After surrendering to the Uttar Pradesh Police on Monday, Sonam reportedly confessed to hiring contract killers to murder her husband, Raja Raghuvanshi. According to police sources, four men, including Raj Kushwaha, have been arrested in connection with the killing. The other three men arrested for allegedly killing Raja were identified as Aakash Rajpoot, Vikas alias Vicky and Anand.
However, Sonam's father has denied the murder allegations against his daughter, accusing the Meghalaya Police of making up stories. He stated that he plans to meet Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to demand a CBI investigation into the incident.
