In a shocking turn of events, Sonam Raghuvanshi, a 25-year-old woman from Indore, has been arrested in connection with the murder of her husband, Raja Raghuvanshi, during their honeymoon in Meghalaya. The couple, married on May 11, 2025, went missing on May 23, 2025, and Raja's decomposed body was discovered on June 2, 2025, near Wei Sawdong Falls in Sohra, Meghalaya.
Investigations revealed that Sonam had planned the trip without informing Raja and had made him wear gold jewellery worth ₹10 lakh, which was later found missing from his body. Authorities suspect that Sonam hired contract killers to murder Raja, and four individuals have been arrested in connection with the case.
