Sonam Raghuvanshi Gets Bail After Allegedly Killing Her Husband Raja During Their Honeymoon in Meghalaya
The court ordered Sonam Raghuvanshi to stay in Shillong and report daily to police as eight people face charges in the murder case.
- On Tuesday, a Shillong court granted bail to Sonam Raghuvanshi, accused of orchestrating her husband Raja Raghuvanshi's honeymoon murder, subject to a Rs 50,000 personal bond and residency in Shillong.
- Allegations stem from Raja's May 2025 death in a gorge near Sohra during the couple's honeymoon; police allege Sonam conspired with Raj Kushwaha to execute the killing under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita murder and conspiracy charges.
- Meghalaya Police filed a 790-page chargesheet against five key accused, including Sonam and Kushwaha, detailing three failed attempts to kill Raja, while the Special Investigation Team reconstructed the crime scene in Sohra.
- Demanding a CBI inquiry, victim's mother Uma Raghuvanshi stated she has "lost trust in the justice system," while Raja's brother Vipin Raghuvanshi declared the family will appeal to the High Court.
- While Sonam received bail, the other four accused—Kushwaha, Chauhan, Rajput, and Kurmi—remain in custody, and her brother Govind declared he "won't support his sister in any manner" as the case continues.
