Indore:Â
One of the persons arrested for alleged involvement in the murder of Indore-based businessman Raja Raghuvanshi in Meghalaya had taken people to the latter's funeral here, as per an eyewitness.
According to the Meghalaya police, Sonam had allegedly hired killers to get rid of her husband during their honeymoon in the north-eastern state last month, just days after their marriage in Indore.
Raghuvanshi, whose family is involved in transport business, got married to Sonam on May 11 in Indore. They left for Meghalaya on May 20 and went missing on May 23. Raghuvanshi's body was found in a deep gorge near a waterfall in Sohra area (also known as Cherrapunji) of Meghalaya's East Khasi Hills district on June 2, as per officials
When Raja's body arrived here, Sonam's family, whose home is in Govind Nagar Kharcha area, had arranged four-five vehicles for people to attend the funeral. Kushwaha was driving the four-wheeler in which I went, though we did not talk. Only after seeing his photograph in the media after his arrest, I recollected this episode," said Lakshman Singh Rathore, a neighbour of the accused woman's family.
East Khasi Hills SP Vivek Syiem on Monday said, "The first person arrested was Rajput from Lalitpur, Uttar Pradesh. The second was Chauhan from Indore, Madhya Pradesh. The third was Kushwaha, also from Indore." The three were allegedly hired by Sonam, who surrendered at the Nandganj Police Station in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur, the Meghalaya police said.
The case has taken a sensational turn with the Meghalaya police arresting Raghuvanshi's wife Sonam (25) and her three alleged aides -- Akash Rajput (19), Vishal Singh Chauhan (22) and Raj Singh Kushwaha (21) -- in connection with the murder.
