News Topical, Digital Desk : The North East is famous for its natural beauty. People from all over the country and abroad come to these states to take vacations and even celebrate honeymoon. A couple from Indore also went to Meghalaya a few days ago to celebrate honeymoon. Raja Raghuvanshi and Sonam Raghuvanshi got married on 11 May.
Both of them had reached Meghalaya on 20 May to celebrate their honeymoon. However, people are completely shocked to hear the story of what happened to them in Meghalaya. The families of both of them have demanded a CBI inquiry into the matter. Meghalaya Police has called it a case of murder.
Police informed that on May 22, the couple reached Mawlakhiyat village on a rented scooter and from there climbed 3000 stairs to see the famous 'Living Root Bridge' in Nongriat village. They stayed overnight in a homestay. Then on May 23, both of them left from there in the morning. A few hours after this, both of them went missing.
What happened between Raja's mother and Sonam?
Just before going missing, Sonam had a phone conversation with her mother-in-law, i.e. Raja's mother. Raja's mother said that the day I had a conversation with Sonam, Sonam had kept a fast. Sonam and Raja were both walking. I had asked Sonam to eat something, but she refused. Sonam had said that I will not break my fast while walking. Sonam had told her mother-in-law that she was trekking. She will talk later. After this the call got disconnected.
East Khasi Hills Superintendent of Police Vivek Siem told the media, "We have recovered the victim's mobile phone and the murder weapon, a knife. This knife was used only for this crime." Raja's brother Sachin Raghuvanshi informed that the body was so decomposed that it was difficult to even recognize the face. Raja's gold rings, chain and wallet are missing.
Meghalaya Chief Minister Konraj K. Sangma has also expressed concern over this matter. He said, we treat tourists like our family. I am personally monitoring the search and rescue operations. The Madhya Pradesh government has also expressed grief over this incident.
