Raja Raghuvanshi's mother's four questions for Sonam as she breaks down: ‘Why did she…?'
Mother of Raja Raghuvanshi demands justice as Sonam, his wife, is accused of conspiracy in his murder during their honeymoon in Meghalaya.
The mother of Raja Raghuvanshi, who was killed during his honeymoon in Meghalaya last month, on Thursday accused Sonam Raghuvanshi of misleading and investigators, urging her to confess to her crime.
"She (Sonam) is misleading too much. She should tell the whole truth. She should be kept in custody until she tells why she killed Raja," Uma Raghuvanshi told ANI.
According to PTI, Uma Raghuvanshi also broke down while remembering her late son and kept asking: “Why did Sonam get my son killed?”
“She, her friends, and all those close to her must be interrogated in detail. What was my son’s fault, and why did she get him killed? I won't find peace until I hear the answer to this directly from Sonam’s mouth," she told the news agency.
