Meghalaya murder case: Accused gets slapped at Indore airport by unknown man - Video

NEW DELHI: As the Meghalaya murder case has sent shockwaves across the country, people have expressed outrage over the chilling incident. Meanwhile, a video captured an unidentified man slapping one of the accused outside Devi Ahilya Bai Holkar airport.

The incident occurred while the authorities were taking the accused inside the airport.


Four accused are being taken to Meghalaya
The four accused Akash Rajput, Vishal Singh Chauhan, Raj Singh Kushwaha, and Anand, are being taken to Shillong following the completion of transit remand formalities.



ACP (crime) PC Yadav said, "Shillong Police has left from Indore airport for Guwahati with all four accused. They will travel via Delhi. The accused have confessed to everything. Shillong Police is questioning them, and once they reach Shillong, more details will come to light."

Meanwhile, Indore businessman Raja Raghuvanshi's newlywed wife, Sonam, is also being taken to Meghalaya. Earlier today, she was brought to Phulwari Sarif police station in Bihar's Patna after receiving her three-day transit remand.

Indore Businessman Raja Raghuvanshi was allegedly killed by contract killers reportedly hired by his wife, Sonam, during a honeymoon trip to Meghalaya.

Sonam, who went missing, was found near a dhaba on the Varanasi-Ghazipur main road. Then, she was kept at Sakhi One Stop Centre in Ghazipur by UP police.

She was taken for a medical examination after Meghalaya police arrived.

Evidence points to Sonam's involvement: Meghalaya CM
Meghalaya chief minister Conrad K Sangma on Tuesday praised the state police for cracking the murder case and said that the force has "solid evidence" regarding the involvement of Sonam in the crime.

"A lot of evidence and facts are coming to light. It took the police a few days to put together the pieces and missing links. But, ultimately the links point to Sonam (Raghuvanshi’s wife)," Sangma told PTI.

"We did not leave anything to chance,” the CM added.

"I want to refrain from going into too much of details. But, evidence is solid, technology-based, including phone records and messages. The statements from the arrested accused will come now," he said.
