1
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,200
'Big news from Meghalaya.'

2
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:26,320
'A newly married couple from
Indore, Raja and Sonam Raghuvanshi,'

3
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,440
'have gone missing under
mysterious circumstances.'

4
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,440
'They got married on 11th May.'

5
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,280
'After that, they went to Meghalaya
on 20th May for their honeymoon.'

6
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,720
'Their last known location
is said to be Sohra.'

7
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,920
'Meghalaya Police
is now looking for them.'

8
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,560
Sonam and Raja's case.

9
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,080
Till now, the internet, media,

10
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:53,040
newspapers, and news channels
have all told their own stories.

11
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,040
But this story is different.

12
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,920
Looking at all this,
I remember the film 'Karz'.

13
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,040
I remember the song,
'Ek Haseena Thi, Ek Deewana Tha.'

14
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,760
I don't know what he saw in Sonam.

15
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,040
He said, 'Mom, this girl is
perfect.'

16
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:11,120
But on the 7th day, when we found
the body of Raja in Wei Sawdong,

17
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,560
that actually changed everything.

18
00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:22,760
But the only question then was,

19
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,280
'Where is Sonam?'

20
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,840
I am the officer in charge
of the Sohra police station.

21
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,600
My name is Sub-Inspector
Anthony Kongsang.

22
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,040
On the evening of 24th May,

23
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,120
we received a call
from the 'Sardar',

24
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,680
who was like the headman.

25
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,160
So, the headman of Sohra village

26
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,240
contacted the police station,

27
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,080
informing us that a scooter
had been abandoned.

28
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,080
So, when we cross-checked

29
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,960
the ownership details
of the scooter,

30
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,560
we found that it belonged
to one person.

31
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,800
So, we contacted that person,
and he told us

32
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,160
he had rented the scooter

33
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,560
to Raja Raghuvanshi
from Madhya Pradesh.

34
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,440
The search continued
from the 26th onward.

35
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,360
And the 26th was also the day

36
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,840
when the brother of Raja Raghuvanshi
submitted a missing report here.

37
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,080
And we continued the search.

38
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:49,040
It was only on the 2nd or 3rd
of June, if I am not mistaken,

39
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,120
that they reached the spot.

40
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,840
The next day, we found a machete.

41
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,200
So, that gave us a hint

42
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,680
that this is the weapon which
was used to execute the murder.

43
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,560
While the search was ongoing,

44
00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:21,440
we began extending it
to other areas as well,

45
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,680
where we found a rain jacket.

46
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,000
We found a rain jacket,
later identified as Sonam's.

47
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,240
His body was bludgeoned.

48
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,880
There were two fatal blows.

49
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,480
There was a broken mobile.

50
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,800
A lot of things didn't sit in place,
you know.

51
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,440
Things were not...

52
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:49,760
Things were amiss out here.

53
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,800
Something was not right.

54
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,040
It was not like a conventional
crime, you know.

55
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,680
And of course,
the body had started...

56
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:00,800
There was...

57
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,760
It started decomposing

58
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,280
and was bloated.

59
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,600
So, you really couldn't make
out until we got the post-mortem...

60
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,480
Autopsy done.

61
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:12,640
But...

62
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,400
That really took a different turn
because...

63
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,560
The bike was found in one place,

64
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,080
and the body was found
somewhere else, 10 kilometres away.

65
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,280
The search was conducted
in the vicinity,

66
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,720
but Sonam was not found.

67
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,960
But we kept hoping
that we'd find Sonam.

68
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,600
So, it took a few more days
to look for her.

69
00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:05,040
I am Sachin Raghuvanshi,
Raja Raghuvanshi's older brother.

70
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,440
What should I say about that moment?
I couldn't see it, but Vipin did.

71
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,880
Only he knows what he went through.

72
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,000
The radiance my brother's face
had since childhood

73
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,000
was no longer there.

74
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,080
Only Vipin knows what he went
through when he saw his face.

75
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,080
Don't ask me about that moment.

76
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,000
I was shattered
when Raja's body came.

77
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,400
I couldn't even see Raja's face.

78
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,600
I mean, I never imagined
that my son would come like this.

79
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,760
He came in a coffin.

80
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,320
When I went outside,
I could not believe

81
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,080
that Raja was in it.

82
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:46,440
We were so happy at his wedding,

83
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,160
and then, suddenly, a tragic event
occurred. It was such a sad thing.

84
00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:57,600
I asked his name,
and he said, 'My name is Raja.'

85
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,960
I said, 'You are Raja.
You'll always be a 'raja' (king).'

86
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,320
Raja is no more.
Now, I don't know who to talk to.

87
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,000
He was pampered the most at home.

88
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,720
Even the kids used to call him Raja.

89
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,680
They used to tease him, saying,
'Raja, where are you going?'

90
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,600
They would not treat him
as an uncle.

91
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,720
The kids would treat him
as a brother.

92
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,160
All three siblings were very close.

93
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:22,960
They had a very good relationship.

94
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,400
They could not live
without each other.

95
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,960
All three of them
used to discuss everything.

96
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,840
When he was young,
he was a little reserved.

97
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,280
When he grew up,
he started going to the office.

98
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,840
So, all three siblings used
to talk to each other freely.

99
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,520
Raja was not a mind-reader.
He was an ordinary boy.

100
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,720
A son of his parents.

101
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,320
He had an arranged marriage.

102
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,880
Just like parents
get their children married.

103
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,280
They might have decided on it
after thinking it through.

104
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:47,920
They might have had discussions.

105
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,360
The parents approved it, which
means she is from a good family.

106
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,000
People consider the family,
not the girl,

107
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,440
in an arranged marriage.

108
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,920
And in love marriages, the girl is
considered, not the family.

109
00:06:58,280 --> 00:06:59,560
That's the big difference.

110
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:07,640
I'm Mukesh Kumar Mangal.
I'm a crime reporter at Nai Duniya.

111
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,120
Their relationship started

112
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,880
through a magazine
of the Raghuvanshi community,

113
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,240
which is often printed
on Ram Navami.

114
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:18,720
It contains the marriage biodata
of boys and girls.

115
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,600
And that's how the families
got in touch.

116
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,560
Both families talked
and fixed the alliance.

117
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,800
He saw her on an app.

118
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,600
He saw her
on an app for the Raghuvanshis.

119
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,240
I don't know what he saw in Sonam.

120
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,480
He said,
'Mom, this girl is perfect.'

121
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,800
'She is getting many proposals.
I think she is very popular.'

122
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,160
'Sonam is perfect.
Both Sonam and I are into business.'

123
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,760
'So, we'll get along well.'

124
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,560
'And we can grow our businesses.'

125
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,240
That's why he chose her.

126
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,800
In the Raghuvanshi community,

127
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:07,920
if both girl and boy are
'mangalik', they get married.

128
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,080
Because of a 'mangalik' wedding,
the couple gets along well,

129
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:17,280
and the risk of accidents decreases.

130
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,040
So I asked, 'Sonam, do you like
our Raja?'

131
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,720
'Tell us whether you like him
or not.'

132
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,320
So, she smiled and lowered her head.

133
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,440
Then I said, 'Let Raja and Sonam
talk to each other.'

134
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,720
We let them talk privately
in a room for 10-15 minutes.

135
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,720
We went there
with the marriage proposal.

136
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,680
They suggested

137
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,280
we get them married
after two months.

138
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,440
When the alliance was fixed,

139
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,800
there was no auspicious date
for three months.

140
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,360
We didn't feel anything was amiss
during our conversation with them.

141
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,640
When Raja wanted to take her out
on a date,

142
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,640
her mom said, 'Her dad
doesn't allow it.'

143
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,200
'The girl doesn't go anywhere
after 7 pm.'

144
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,560
'She goes straight home
from the office.'

145
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,520
We were pleased, thinking she
was a homely girl,

146
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:13,240
and her parents were taking
good care of her.

147
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,720
But we didn't know that they had
something else on their minds.

148
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,240
They were in a hurry
to get them married.

149
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,880
They used to call us daily

150
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,600
and say, 'Our preparations are done.
Why aren't yours done yet?'

151
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,600
So, we told them it was Holi,
the Phagun month,

152
00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:32,400
and that we couldn't buy anything
during this month.

153
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,320
So, we didn't make any preparations.

154
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:35,920
We can't say they rushed it.

155
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,520
Both families decided it.
They fixed the date.

156
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,320
Both families fixed it.

157
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,760
We can't say they rushed it.

158
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:49,880
We weren't in a hurry.

159
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,160
When we went there
for the engagement,

160
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,880
we said we would get them married
after Diwali.

161
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,480
We just wanted to get them engaged.

162
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,040
'If we wait for four months,
they will know each other better.'

163
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,360
'It will be good for them.'

164
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,920
They said their priest had said

165
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,800
there was no good date
for the wedding after Diwali.

166
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,120
He said there was no good date
for their union.

167
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,520
Raja didn't have anything
on his mind.

168
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,200
Raja was very happy
on the day of the wedding.

169
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,240
As people worry
about certain things,

170
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,280
that wasn't the case with Raja.

171
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:31,440
Raja was really happy.

172
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,160
During the wedding procession,
we all danced.

173
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,360
Everyone in the family danced.

174
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:44,640
I asked Raja,

175
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,080
'Are you happy?' He didn't say
anything. He was feeling shy.

176
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:49,720
He was a quiet guy.

177
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,160
He wouldn't talk much.
He was very reserved.

178
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,320
At the wedding, I asked him
if he was upset,

179
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:55,720
and he said, 'It's nothing, dad.'

180
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,520
He was happy.

181
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000
After the wedding...
- After the wedding...

182
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,520
He...
- He...

183
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,640
And his friends...
- And his friends...

184
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,120
Can go anywhere.

185
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,680
He agreed to fulfil
all the promises.

186
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,920
He said he would learn
how to make tea for you.

187
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:15,800
You have to make this promise.

188
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,680
And his friends...
- And his friends...

189
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,360
Can party anywhere.
- Can party anywhere.

190
00:11:21,560 --> 00:11:24,160
He can spend the night anywhere.
- No.

191
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:27,440
I'll never ask...
- I'll ask.

192
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,880
Where have you been?
- I'll ask that.

193
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,440
Who were you with?

194
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,440
Who were you with?
- Raja, you are doomed.

195
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,360
She was married off.

196
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,720
But her happiness, compromises,

197
00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:59,760
vision,

198
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,200
and what she wanted are the things
she didn't get to choose.

199
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,880
Two days ago, before leaving,

200
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,480
Raja came to the dining table
and told me,

201
00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:19,560
'Mom, the tickets have been booked.
I am going out tomorrow.'

202
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,360
I said,
'Son, you didn't want to go.'

203
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,720
'Why are you going out suddenly?

204
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,080
He said, 'Mom, I didn't book
the tickets, Sonam did.'

205
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,320
He didn't even meet me
before going.

206
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,320
She picked him up from the office
and took him away.

207
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,320
She booked the tickets herself.

208
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,720
His mom told me about it.

209
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,120
I asked, 'Where is Raja?'

210
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,680
She said, 'Raja went out.'

211
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,880
She took him away on the pretext
of visiting the Kamakhya Temple.

212
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,760
Otherwise, Raja wouldn't have gone.

213
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,240
Because he had already refused.

214
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,680
He said, 'I don't have any plans
to go out. I don't want to go now.'

215
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,520
But she said, 'No, I want
to visit the Kamakhya Temple.'

216
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,040
'I made a votive to visit it
after marriage.'

217
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,440
So, she persuaded him
and took him away.

218
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:16,880
He couldn't understand anything.
So, he left.

219
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,160
There was a twist

220
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,160
in this case on 23rd May.

221
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,600
Around 2 pm.

222
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,080
Sonam and Raja were
on their honeymoon in Shillong.

223
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:42,560
When they went
to a mountainous area,

224
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:48,040
Sonam called her mother-in-law,
Uma Raghuvanshi, around 1.30 pm.

225
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,160
She told her

226
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:55,200
that they had arrived.
She sounded tired.

227
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,680
She was panting
and climbing the stairs.

228
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,640
She said,
'He has taken me far away.'

229
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,920
'I don't have any food
to eat here.'

230
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,480
'I got coffee,
which was bland. I threw it.'

231
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,200
'Hello.
- Hello.'

232
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,640
'Yes?
- Isn't Raja's phone on?'

233
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:15,280
'Not yet. We are climbing up
right now.'

234
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:17,640
'We will call you
when we reach the top.'

235
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,200
'You are fasting today, right?'

236
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,640
'I am fasting. He told me
to eat a couple of times.'

237
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,960
'But I won't break my fast
for sightseeing.'

238
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,520
'I was cooking, and suddenly,
I remembered it.'

239
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,520
'I thought my daughter-in-law
was fasting today.'

240
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:34,280
'Yes.'

241
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,240
'I'm making 'khichdi'.
- My mom called me in the morning.'

242
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:37,200
'Okay.'

243
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,200
'She reminded me about the fast.
I said, Yes.'

244
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,920
'Yes, you can eat dairy products'

245
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,240
'like milk, 'lassi', or whatever
is available during your fast.'

246
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,640
'It's not possible. Nothing is
available in this jungle area.'

247
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,920
When they couldn't contact him...

248
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,320
They had four phones.

249
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,600
Their phones were switched off.
So, Raja's family

250
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,560
contacted the local crime branch

251
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,000
through their acquaintances
and told them...

252
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:03,440
A couple...

253
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,640
Raja's brother told them
that his brother

254
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,560
and sister-in-law had gone
to Shillong for their honeymoon.

255
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,680
His mother talked to them
around 1.30 am.

256
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,320
Then their phones were
switched off.

257
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:19,040
Then, from Raja's family,
his brother, Vipin,

258
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,680
and Sonam's brother, Govind,

259
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,480
went to Shillong.

260
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,720
There was a twist. There was
a guy who was a guide.

261
00:15:58,800 --> 00:15:59,920
Albert Pade.

262
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,280
He brought a twist
to the whole story.

263
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,080
When the police spoke to him,
he said he offered

264
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,600
his services to them. He asked,
'Would you like a guide?'

265
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,440
Sonam and Raja refused.

266
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:11,320
They said they didn't need a guide

267
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,400
because they had already
hired a guide.

268
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,920
Then, he said that he saw them
going with three people.

269
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,760
Early in the morning...

270
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,160
I went down.

271
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,840
I saw them halfway.

272
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,080
I saw them here.

273
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,440
Raja and three other people.

274
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,000
They stood together there.

275
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:40,640
Sonam was standing behind them.

276
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,360
That's it. Then, I went down.

277
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,440
Well, the three killers...

278
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,240
A lot of profiling was done.

279
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,840
The people, especially the guide,

280
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,400
who had actually seen the couple

281
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,760
with those three people...
Then profiling started.

282
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,440
After profiling these people,
we traced them to where they...

283
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,040
To...

284
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,240
A lot of technical analysis
was also done.

285
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,360
In Lalitpur...

286
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,560
Vishal was in Lalitpur.

287
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,720
He was the first person picked up.

288
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,640
But when I told him my team is
about 8 km from Indore,

289
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,280
he said, 'Have they come
to make some enquiries?'

290
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:27,200
I said, 'No, they have come
to make an arrest.'

291
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:28,760
He said, 'Have you got suspects?

292
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,560
I said, 'No, they have come
to arrest.'

293
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,520
'The first picture of all four
culprits, including Raj Kushwaha,'

294
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,840
'is in front of you.'

295
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,320
'These accused are in the custody
of the Meghalaya police.'

296
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,120
When Raja's dead body came,

297
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,040
we didn't take note of Raj Kushwaha.

298
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:53,800
When Raj Kushwaha's photo
was leaked,

299
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,840
my dad said, 'That boy sat
next to me.'

300
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,000
He came with his dad.

301
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,320
Then we took out the cameras.

302
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,280
We checked the footage.

303
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,680
Raj Kushwaha was there.
He even brought the shroud.

304
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,440
At that time, we didn't know
that Raj Kushwaha was involved.

305
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:11,560
We didn't know that.

306
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,520
We thought that the children
had been kidnapped.

307
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,640
We only found out about it later.

308
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,400
Sonam used to take care
of her father, Devi Singh,

309
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,960
and her brother, Govind's,

310
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,200
plywood business.

311
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,960
This is an interesting incident.

312
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,240
Raj used to work there.

313
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,640
He used to call her
'didi' (older sister).

314
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,480
Even on his phone, her number
was saved as 'Sonam Didi'.

315
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,680
While working,

316
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,400
Raj won everyone's heart

317
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,680
and started taking care

318
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:51,320
of funding, liquidity
and cash flow.

319
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:58,920
We got information

320
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,120
that Sonam Raghuvanshi had
contacted her family members

321
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,360
from one of the eateries
in Ghazipur.

322
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,160
Then, she surrendered
at Nandganj Police Station.

323
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,880
So that was it.

324
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,080
'A huge piece of information.'

325
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,200
'A search operation was underway
to locate Sonam Raghuvanshi.'

326
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,440
'Zee News is breaking
this information.'

327
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,280
'Raja Raghuvanshi's wife,
Sonam Raghuvanshi,'

328
00:19:23,360 --> 00:19:25,440
'has been found in Ghazipur,
Uttar Pradesh.'

329
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,680
She was being looked for everywhere,
not just Shillong.

330
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,800
They went to the extent of exploring
a Bangladesh connection.

331
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,440
Like, it's possible she was sent
to Bangladesh.

332
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,160
So, the agencies and the police

333
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,680
were searching nationwide.

334
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,880
They were looking
for her everywhere.

335
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,720
She said, 'Make the first call
to my brother, Govind.'

336
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,560
At that time, Govind was searching
for her in Shillong.

337
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,400
So, Govind said,
'Let me talk to the eatery owner.'

338
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:01,600
The eatery owner talked to him.

339
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,560
So, Govind said, 'She is my sister.'

340
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,880
'Search for the Raja Raghuvanshi or
Sonam Raghuvanshi case on Google,'

341
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,800
'and you will understand
what the case is.'

342
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,400
'Please take her in.'

343
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,040
'I am leaving from here
and informing the police.'

344
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,160
Govind contacted
the Ghazipur police.

345
00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:19,400
The Ghazipur police
reached the eatery.

346
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,800
They took her into custody.

347
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,160
They informed the Indore police.

348
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,440
At that time, the Indore Police
were interrogating

349
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,120
Raj Kushwaha and Vishal Chauhan.

350
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,920
This case was kept

351
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,080
so secret

352
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,800
that the accused were not kept

353
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,280
at any police station.

354
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:45,120
Shillong Police didn't let anyone

355
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,240
find out that they were
in Indore,

356
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:48,880
and that there was

357
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,120
an investigation
or interrogation going on.

358
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,000
When she had actually
surrendered at the eatery

359
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,960
and reached the closest...

360
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,920
We had contacted the SHO
and all that close by.

361
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,920
And she said that she had escaped
from the clutches

362
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,040
of certain people, which
actually didn't fall into place.

363
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,720
We all knew.

364
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,720
It was bound to happen.

365
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:15,360
The game was up.

366
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:16,840
It was up.

367
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,960
The Additional Police Commissioner
contacted the Ghazipur police,

368
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,200
and he spoke to Sonam
on a video call.

369
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,920
Sonam started crying.

370
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,800
She described what had
happened to her in broken words.

371
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,480
She was making up all the stories
she could make.

372
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,480
She said, 'They took me away.'

373
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,840
The police kept listening to her.

374
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,120
Raj was sitting next to her.

375
00:21:44,120 --> 00:21:46,840
When they put pressure on Raj

376
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,800
and gave him the third degree,

377
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,920
Raj told them everything.

378
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,160
The police arranged a video call
between Sonam and Raj.

379
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,880
Sonam was told that her lie
had been caught.

380
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,840
She couldn't get away.
She got Raja killed.

381
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,640
Then it became clear
that it was a planned killing.

382
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,240
A team from Shillong...

383
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,280
Since the investigation and the case
were registered in Shillong,

384
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,240
a team from Shillong
went to Ghazipur

385
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,040
and took Sonam into their custody.

386
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,080
Well, she had been staying
in Indore. And then...

387
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,040
The plan was that she would
resurface somewhere.

388
00:22:38,360 --> 00:22:40,720
And... A vehicle was hired.

389
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,480
She would travel

390
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,480
and resurface somewhere
in Siliguri and then come up.

391
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,240
Because it just happened.
I think it was providence.

392
00:22:52,360 --> 00:22:54,920
The operational team went
on the same day.

393
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,400
They also planned to come out
that day.

394
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:58,520
And things went...

395
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,560
I think it was karma.

396
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,320
It was the same day, the 8th.

397
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,680
They went out, we came in.

398
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,560
And things went wrong for them.

399
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:09,880
She was supposed to resurface.

400
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,840
Her story was that she was
trafficked

401
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,280
or kidnapped by some people,
and then she escaped from them.

402
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:15,760
That was her story.

403
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,240
And she would get all the sympathy.

404
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,040
Thankfully, that day,
the operational team went there.

405
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,120
When they caught these people,
everything came out.

406
00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:31,800
At that time, we felt that...

407
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:33,560
Sonam... I mean...

408
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:35,320
The media came...

409
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,800
I mean, Mithilesi came.

410
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,280
He said, 'Aunt, Sonam
is the murderer of Raja.

411
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,560
So I said, 'It's not possible.
How could Sonam do such a thing?'

412
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,360
'Sonam was his wife.'

413
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,760
'Why would Sonam kill him?'

414
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,160
Until Raj Kushwaha was caught,
we didn't believe it.

415
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,720
When Raj Kushwaha
and the other three were caught,

416
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,080
we were completely convinced

417
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,920
that it was Sonam's conspiracy.

418
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:04,160
I want to ask Sonam,
'Why did you kill my Raja?'

419
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,440
The plan was devised
by Raj and Sonam.

420
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,560
Whatever plan was made,
both were equally responsible.

421
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,760
I am Uday Pratap Singh. I have been
in journalism for the past 20 years.

422
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,080
These people arrived in Assam
by plane.

423
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:39,840
They went to the Kamakhya Temple
in Assam.

424
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,120
As soon as they reached Assam,

425
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,880
Aakash, Vishal and Anand

426
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:47,920
followed them.

427
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:50,440
But at that time,
they didn't stay nearby.

428
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:51,920
They kept looking for a chance.

429
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,520
The Kamakhya Temple is
a public place. It's crowded.

430
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,120
So the chances of committing
such a crime there...

431
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,840
They planned to make
their first attempt there.

432
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,760
They thought they'd get
their first chance there.

433
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,360
They planned to murder him
somewhere in the mountain region.

434
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,920
Sonam became very aggressive
during this time.

435
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,040
She thought the day
had been wasted.

436
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,640
Raja should've been killed that day.

437
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,680
She wondered how long she would keep
him engaged.

438
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:21,280
So she brought
Vishal, Anand and Aakash

439
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,960
to Shillong's remote area.

440
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,880
The investigation found

441
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,120
that whenever a couple goes
on a honeymoon,

442
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:32,880
they look for a good hotel.

443
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,080
But these people booked
a simple one, not a good one.

444
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:37,800
It was also Sonam's plan.

445
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,920
So Sonam chose a hotel

446
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,880
with no cameras or security system.

447
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,080
So that they could talk
to anyone or plan anything.

448
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,560
Before going to the murder site,

449
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,200
they had kept their bag
at a guest house.

450
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,000
Since cameras were installed there,

451
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,240
Sonam was spotted
talking outside.

452
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,440
At that time, Sonam was
a little aggressive.

453
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,120
I spoke to the guest house staff,

454
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,960
and he told me that Sonam was
talking outside.

455
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:17,240
During this time,
when they were in Nongriat,

456
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:19,560
they met Aakash.

457
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,520
Raja didn't know anyone.

458
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,360
All three of them were strangers
to him.

459
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,680
But Raj told Sonam about them
on the phone.

460
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,040
So, those men told him
they were from Madhya Pradesh,

461
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:31,160
and they had come for sightseeing.

462
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,080
So, he thought,
'They should travel together.'

463
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,880
Such friendship usually forms
in public places.

464
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,000
They were from the same place.

465
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,320
So they started travelling together.

466
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,160
Raja didn't know that Sonam was
involved with them.

467
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,920
Raja's phone was switched off
a day before.

468
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,800
I made a call on Sonam's phone.

469
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,120
So Sonam said he was ahead

470
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,960
and that she would have him
talk to me later.

471
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,360
Then, she had Raja talk to me
after some time.

472
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,800
Then I asked Raja.

473
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,760
Raja said,
'Mom, I just reached the top.'

474
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,120
'I have been walking since morning.'

475
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,080
I asked Raja what he had eaten.

476
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,120
He said, 'Mom,
I'm eating bananas,'

477
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,960
'and I'm at the top.'

478
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,520
I asked him
what was at the bottom.

479
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,760
He said that he had gone to see
the waterfall.

480
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,680
I asked him why he exerted himself
so much.

481
00:27:20,120 --> 00:27:22,320
That's what we talked about.
He said, 'Mom, it's a great place.'

482
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,280
So, I asked him to send
a video of it.

483
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,520
He said, 'Mom, I will send it later.
There is a network problem.'

484
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,360
'Are you recording the video
or not?'

485
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,080
'You're not uploading any videos.'

486
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,080
'What have you seen so far?'

487
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,400
'What have you seen?'

488
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:41,800
'Tell me, Raja.'

489
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,280
'There is an internet problem.'

490
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,800
'The internet is not working.
I'll send it when I get network.'

491
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,280
'There is an internet problem.'

492
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:49,080
'He is just moving around.'

493
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,040
'Come back.
- Hmm.'

494
00:27:52,120 --> 00:27:54,080
'How many days are left?
Two more days?'

495
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:55,240
'Two days left.'

496
00:27:57,120 --> 00:27:58,560
'Two.
- Hmm.'

497
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,600
'Two. You must be exhausted today.'

498
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,920
'You must be exhausted today.
- What?'

499
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:08,480
'Yes.'

500
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,320
I asked him to make a video call.

501
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:11,640
It was Sonam's phone.

502
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:15,120
She didn't let Raja make
a video call.

503
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,040
She told him not to make
a video call,

504
00:28:17,120 --> 00:28:21,440
and that they were okay
and they would return soon.

505
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,960
He told me they were leaving.
Raja told me

506
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,280
that they were leaving the place.

507
00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:28,120
The question is,
why didn't Raj come?

508
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,960
It's because Raja had seen Raj
at the wedding.

509
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,800
If Raj had come,

510
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,800
he would've been recognised.

511
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,800
So, Raj stayed in Indore,

512
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,440
did all the planning there,

513
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,560
and those three men followed
his orders.

514
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,240
Suddenly, I felt uneasy at night.

515
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,080
I was restless and couldn't sleep.

516
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,160
I wondered why I was feeling uneasy.

517
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,320
When I woke up in the morning,
I told Raja's brothers

518
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,000
that Raja's phone was unreachable,
but Sonam's was reachable.

519
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,680
So, they called Sonam's brother.

520
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,280
They told him to call Sonam
to see if she answered his call.

521
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,000
And that she wasn't answering
their calls.

522
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,120
Her brother said that she wasn't
answering his calls either.

523
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,120
We took all of them and...

524
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,560
Of course, we caught
each of them separately

525
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,840
because we wanted to see what...

526
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,800
We wanted to check
the veracity of their version.

527
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,920
We went straight from the place

528
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,680
where they had parked their
two-wheeler

529
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,200
to go to the homestay in Nongriat,

530
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,360
which is about a two-and-a-half-hour
trek on foot.

531
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,040
From there, they showed us
what had happened.

532
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,080
That was the point

533
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,920
where all of them met.

534
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,080
The three assailants,

535
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,280
Sonam and Raja.

536
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,320
Sonam didn't know the place.

537
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,440
She had never been there.

538
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,360
So she...

539
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,080
So they drove into this place,

540
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,000
and Raja was very fond
of photography and all that.

541
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:10,600
He was taking photographs
and all that.

542
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,480
That gave them an opportunity.

543
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,800
What's interesting is
that when this crime was committed

544
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,400
near the secluded creek...

545
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,400
Based on the police's
recreated scene

546
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,440
and what we learned from the locals,

547
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,160
it was revealed

548
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,400
that they were looking
for a chance to kill Raja.

549
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,760
They had two weapons with them.

550
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:01,200
Vishal attacked first
with a machete,

551
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,600
and then Aakash attacked him.

552
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,400
He sustained two attacks
on his head.

553
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,440
After the attacks,
he fell unconscious.

554
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,000
Then, they wondered what to do.

555
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,000
At the time, Sonam screamed.

556
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:16,800
His condition became serious.

557
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,960
That's when they threw his body
into the creek.

558
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:30,080
It was thrown from a precipice,
from a high point.

559
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:35,120
So, it had many platforms.

560
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,240
We were very lucky

561
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,240
that it landed on one of the ledges.

562
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:42,720
The stone ledges.

563
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,360
There was a stone precipice
like this.

564
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:47,880
But it had a ledge.

565
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,360
If he hadn't fallen on that ledge,

566
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,400
wild animals would've
gotten him, and we would've...

567
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,040
They would have torn
the body apart,

568
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,880
and we wouldn't have been
able to identify anything.

569
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,160
They took their scooter

570
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,960
and left Raja and Sonam's scooter
in a corner.

571
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,600
Aakash's clothes were stained
with blood.

572
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,400
So, Sonam gave him the black jacket
that she was wearing.

573
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,520
Aakash wore the black jacket.

574
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,120
On the way, they threw the jacket,

575
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,640
which the police recovered.

576
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,360
From Guwahati to Lokhra ISBT,
she travelled by car.

577
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,880
Then, she took a bus to Siliguri.

578
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,520
From there to Patna by bus,
from Patna to Arrah,

579
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,720
from Arrah to Lucknow by train,

580
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,840
and from Lucknow to Indore by bus.

581
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,400
And during this time,
a burqa was also used by Sonam.

582
00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,840
The burqa, which Raja had provided
to Aakash.

583
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:02,520
She wore that burqa so that
her identity would remain hidden.

584
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,160
You will see that she also
changed the modes of her transit

585
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,400
so that her identity
was not revealed.

586
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,920
If she had used the same mode,
she would've been found.

587
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,320
She bought general tickets
to keep her identity hidden.

588
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,000
She kept changing her movements.

589
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,680
Sonam came to Indore after

590
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,000
the murder.

591
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,720
And she had rented a room
in Heera Bagh Colony,

592
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,400
which was her safe house.

593
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,120
Raj had planned for that.

594
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,280
He prepared a rent agreement
in Vishal's name

595
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:34,800
and got a flat.

596
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,720
He kept Sonam in that same flat.

597
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,960
After Raj's arrest,

598
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,000
around the 8th or 9th of June,

599
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,440
she was dramatically
caught in Ghazipur.

600
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,920
The most shocking thing,
if you ask me, was

601
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,760
how one can think
of murdering somebody

602
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,560
and go ahead and marry that person.

603
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,160
That's the most shocking thing.

604
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,080
I mean, there are a lot of cases.
I have so many murder cases,

605
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,040
but this is unique in the sense

606
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,680
that one is going to marry somebody

607
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,840
and also think
right from that point of time

608
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,200
that after I marry, I am going
to murder the person.

609
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,480
That was most shocking.

610
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,080
It is possible that she killed him
for her lover, Raj.

611
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:19,240
But it is possible that after a few
months, she gets fed up with Raj

612
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,200
and starts looking for someone else.

613
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,080
This is a personality,
and personality is wavering.

614
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,520
It is not stable.

615
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,960
So we cannot say
what is on her mind.

616
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,800
This time, she may have done it
for Raj.

617
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,800
Later, Raj might be murdered for
someone else, so we can't be sure.

618
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,840
This is a very interesting point.

619
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,640
Raja was very disappointed
with Sonam.

620
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,920
We learned from his friends

621
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,440
that Sonam's behaviour towards him
was not right.

622
00:34:44,720 --> 00:34:47,920
Usually, when a boy and a girl get
engaged,

623
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,520
the boy talks a lot
with his fiancée.

624
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,040
Both the girl and the boy talk
to each other.

625
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,000
She wants to know about
his daily routine, his attire,

626
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,800
his work, his circle,
she wants to know everything.

627
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,040
The same is true for the boy.

628
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,840
But this was not happening
with Raja.

629
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,200
After they got engaged,

630
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,080
Raja once told his mother
that she didn't want to talk to him.

631
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:10,840
So his mother said that it was okay.
It must be work pressure.

632
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:11,880
Sometimes, Sonam would say,

633
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,960
'I do not have time
because of office work,'

634
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,760
'so I cannot talk to you much.'

635
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,520
Now, Raja tried his best

636
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,080
to make her his companion.

637
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,920
There is a courtship period.

638
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,840
Sometimes it is for 6 months,
sometimes for a year,

639
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,600
and sometimes for a few months.

640
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,720
During this time, they basically
get to know each other.

641
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,360
That is why the courtship period
is important.

642
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,360
So they can get to know
each other,

643
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,720
go out together,
and spend time together.

644
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,000
Here, Sonam refused.

645
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,880
Sonam did not want to go out
with him.

646
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,400
How could she go out
with a stranger?

647
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:55,200
With a man with whom
she can neither unite physically

648
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:56,960
nor emotionally?

649
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,440
She was physically and emotionally
involved with Raj.

650
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,240
It is also possible that Sonam's
family is hiding something.

651
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,480
Like...

652
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,240
Maybe because of the fear
of defamation.

653
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,840
Or maybe Raj's profile was
very small to them.

654
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,000
He was their employee.
He did not have a house.

655
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,600
He used to get 10-12 thousand
rupees.

656
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,240
And she owned such a big empire.

657
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,480
They might've thought that after
marriage, she would forget all this

658
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,080
and move on with her life.

659
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,920
A mother is a mother, right?
She's a woman.

660
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,600
What do you expect from a mom
who knows about her daughter's deed?

661
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,840
The mother might've learned
about the affair.

662
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,560
So, they planned her wedding,

663
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,040
and the girl agreed immediately.

664
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,840
So, I'd say, the mother is
equally responsible.

665
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,160
Sonam's mother is
just as responsible as Sonam.

666
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,640
They might've known about this.
We don't know.

667
00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:44,480
They might've thought
that once she was married,

668
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,360
she would settle down,
get busy with her married life,

669
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,080
grow a family,
and forget about the boy.

670
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,080
That's what they would've thought.

671
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,800
She had a relationship...
Raj had a relationship with her.

672
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:01,160
In fact, there is also evidence
to show the relationship.

673
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,160
Raja had bought jewellery for her.

674
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,720
Last year, he had already
bought jewellery

675
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,040
and a 'mangalsutra'.

676
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,000
There were plans for marriage also.

677
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,000
They may have planned
to run away. I don't know.

678
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,240
But they were already in love
and already had plans

679
00:37:20,720 --> 00:37:21,840
for marriage.

680
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,600
He did not want to lose Sonam.

681
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,520
They had a physical relationship,

682
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,480
and they were deeply in love.

683
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,240
They were trying to be together.

684
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:38,440
So during that time,
they were spending time together.

685
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,800
While preparations for her marriage
were underway,

686
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,480
she was in contact with Raj.

687
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,760
So during that time,
the manipulation and premeditation

688
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:48,880
of the murder...

689
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,200
I mean, the process of murder
was going on.

690
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,480
That process kept going on

691
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,920
in Sonam's and Raja's minds.

692
00:37:59,240 --> 00:38:04,800
That whoever comes between us,
we will kill him.

693
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,920
Since Raj was continuously
in contact with her,

694
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,440
she became conflicted.

695
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,040
On the one hand, Raja,
who was chosen by the parents,

696
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,120
and on the other hand,
the love with which she wanted,

697
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,000
with whom she wanted to settle down.

698
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:22,920
And he was not worthy of that.

699
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,080
He was not at the same level as Raja

700
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,920
in terms of luxury, comfort,
love, conversation, status,

701
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,920
looks, and body language.

702
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:33,760
The parents chose him for her.

703
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,680
But she could not move away
from Raj.

704
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,680
She could not forget
the love of the night.

705
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:44,240
She felt that she could
only live with him.

706
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,400
She could never live with Raja.

707
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,920
After both of them thought it
through and confirmed it,

708
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:53,840
she married Raja.

709
00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:56,200
They decided to eliminate him.

710
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,120
She attempted three times.

711
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:03,840
Raj and Sonam attempted to kill Raja
three times after marriage.

712
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,800
This clearly shows that this was
a premeditated plan.

713
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,640
This was a plan they had
considered long before marriage.

714
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,240
She hadn't even been
intimate with him.

715
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,240
This is because she had accepted Raj

716
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,400
as her husband physically
and emotionally.

717
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,240
Since she had accepted Raj,
Raja became collateral damage,

718
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,400
and she tried to send a message.

719
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,640
A message to her parents.
'I had told you'

720
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,560
'there would be consequences.'

721
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:34,200
She wanted to set an example.

722
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,440
She thought that once widowed,

723
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,880
it would be hard to find a match.

724
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,480
She would tell her parents,
'My husband died.'

725
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,160
'What should I do now?'

726
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,360
'I have no one else.
No one will marry me.'

727
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,640
When the new bride
becomes a widow,

728
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,760
what would the parents do?

729
00:39:57,240 --> 00:39:59,120
Who would they go to?

730
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,840
Then Raj would come onto the scene.

731
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:02,680
When Raj would come onto the scene,

732
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,360
they would agree to marry her
to Raj.

733
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:11,040
But when Sonam's wedding to Raja
was fixed,

734
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,560
their love grew deeper.

735
00:40:14,720 --> 00:40:16,880
They started loving each other
even more.

736
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,120
Because...

737
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:20,680
At that time, she planned

738
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,480
with Raj to get rid of Raja
after the wedding.

739
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,560
By the way, they made
a lot of plans.

740
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,960
Earlier, they thought

741
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,200
that they would take him to some
other place and kill him.

742
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,080
Then they thought
that she would fall into a river.

743
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,080
She would swim to the other side.

744
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,040
She would disappear to give
the impression

745
00:40:38,240 --> 00:40:40,040
that she was washed away.

746
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:44,080
Or she would go out with Raja,

747
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,480
she would push Raja
from a height and kill him.

748
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:47,880
So she had been planning
such things for a long time.

749
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,080
As soon as the alliance was formed

750
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:50,360
and the engagement was fixed,

751
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,960
they became busy
with extensive planning.

752
00:40:53,240 --> 00:40:55,880
However, their plans didn't
fall into place.

753
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,480
And it was decided that they would
kill him on their honeymoon.

754
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,280
See, there were many signs.

755
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,440
Like I said, you know, Soman
was the pivot of this whole thing,

756
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:09,080
while Raj handled
the operational side.

757
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,240
But Sonam was the one
who wanted all these things.

758
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:18,320
Even after marriage, Sonam went
back to her parents' house to stay.

759
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:24,720
I don't think she had any liking
for Raja from the outset.

760
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,200
She was hell-bent on carrying on
this thing.

761
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,120
People were wondering what
the reason behind her apathy was.

762
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,040
If she were in love,
she should've said so.

763
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,800
Her neighbours even said

764
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,360
that Sonam was not happy
with the marriage.

765
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,440
She used to get angry,
she used to shout.

766
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,640
So the people in the neighbourhood
even reported

767
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,960
that there was a lot of noise
coming from her house.

768
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,320
Usually, where there is going to be
a wedding,

769
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:51,880
there shouldn't be such fights.

770
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,800
So it was said that Sonam
and her father used to fight.

771
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,240
She was not ready for marriage.
She must have told them.

772
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,480
But her parents were pressuring her.

773
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,160
So, she had to get married.

774
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,400
Sonam told her mother
to do whatever she wanted

775
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,120
because Sonam had not given
her consent to the wedding,

776
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,200
and that she would face
the consequences.

777
00:42:11,720 --> 00:42:15,520
Look, we cannot call it smashing
the general patriarchy.

778
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,520
But it is possible that she wanted

779
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,760
to get out of her family's pressure.

780
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,200
In India, many families
are patriarchal,

781
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,360
and women have to forcefully
get married many times.

782
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:28,440
They have to compromise.

783
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,880
And maybe that happened with her.

784
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,120
But maybe she wanted
to get liberated.

785
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,920
She knew that her family
would not be able to liberate her.

786
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,200
That is why she had to take
this terrible step.

787
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,480
Sonam Raghuvanshi was
a very independent girl.

788
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,800
And when she wanted to settle down,

789
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,200
she told her parents many times

790
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,800
about the person she loved.

791
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,440
She told them, 'I love him.'

792
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,400
The parents said no.

793
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,440
'You will not marry Raj.'

794
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:04,720
'Why?'

795
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,040
'Raj is not worthy of you.'

796
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,760
'We will decide who is worthy
of you.'

797
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,600
'Someone who can give you money,'

798
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,200
'status,'

799
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,600
'luxury and comfort.'

800
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:17,880
'You don't need to work.'

801
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,280
'Be the mistress of the house.'

802
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:22,640
It was Raja.

803
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:27,320
But she wasn't in love with Raja.

804
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,200
She felt like her parents
treated her like a puppet.

805
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,320
She told her family,

806
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,440
'You need to understand this.'

807
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:38,880
'If not Raj, then no one else.'

808
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:43,080
'Whoever you tie with me...'

809
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,920
Here, it was poor Raja.

810
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:46,880
If there had been someone else
in his place,

811
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,160
she would have done
the same to him.

812
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,760
She considered him an obstacle.

813
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,640
I mean a hurdle.

814
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,040
A hurdle between two lovers.

815
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,800
A hurdle that her parents put
in her path.

816
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:09,640
The mother made her daughter
her enemy

817
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,040
by telling her
she had to marry him.

818
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,880
You know the inner talks
of the houses.

819
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,840
You know how a mother persuades
her daughter.

820
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:25,200
'I would die.
What would the world say?'

821
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,000
'Dear, think about it.
Your dad is getting old.'

822
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:29,560
'Your grandfather is getting old.'

823
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,200
'Something needs to be done.
We need to do things.'

824
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,320
So, you need to consider
all these things.

825
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,840
During that time,
she said all these things

826
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,360
and even refused,

827
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,560
saying, 'I will take revenge
for this.'

828
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,640
In a way, she had told this
to the family.

829
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,200
'There will be consequences.'

830
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,200
The parents could not understand
the consequences.

831
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,160
They thought,
'What could be the consequences?'

832
00:44:53,240 --> 00:44:54,520
'What would be the consequences?'

833
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,480
'What's the worst
that could happen?'

834
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,680
'We will see the consequences.
You will have to marry him.'

835
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:01,640
'We cannot discard our daughter.'

836
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,400
So the parents, to give
their daughter the best,

837
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,600
got her married.

838
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:09,120
Sonam agreed to get married.

839
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,080
Because without her consent, this
marriage would not have happened.

840
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:15,960
So when she received an offer
of marriage, she accepted it.

841
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:17,400
She wanted to be with Raja.

842
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,200
That's why they also planned
the honeymoon.

843
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,680
To start a new life... We have
faith in the Kamakhya Temple.

844
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,320
If a couple goes there
after marriage,

845
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,600
their relationship tends
to be very good.

846
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,080
I have seen the CCTV footage

847
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,200
from the Sadar Police Station

848
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,120
showing that Sonam was
behaving normally.

849
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:50,000
Even the police were saying
that she was not feeling remorse.

850
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,800
She didn't feel any guilt.

851
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,400
There's one thing about Sonam.
When I read her

852
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:00,440
disposition after all this,

853
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,520
she looked unfazed, totally.

854
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,840
Well, the only hope is that she
doesn't go on a killing spree again.

855
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,920
Sonam didn't get the time to think

856
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,440
that she would feel remorse
or guilt.

857
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,880
Because she had belonged to Raj
from the beginning.

858
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,600
She could never become Raja's.

859
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,840
So to her, he was a hurdle. A rock

860
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:32,800
that her parents put in her way
despite her disapproval.

861
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,560
They had made a picture
in their minds

862
00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:38,480
that it was very important
to eliminate Raja.

863
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,640
I would like to request
that the government

864
00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:41,840
punish her in such a way

865
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,240
that no girl ever commits
such a crime.

866
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:46,400
Because of that girl,

867
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:48,760
those three boys were lured
with money,

868
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:49,920
and their families were
also affected.

869
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:50,920
My family was affected.

870
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,480
Because of a girl,
many families have been destroyed.

871
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,840
She should receive
either life imprisonment

872
00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,240
or a death sentence.

873
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,520
We want no one to meet

874
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,840
the same fate as Raja.

875
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,120
That is why we are raising
this question.

876
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,080
If Raja gets justice,

877
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,600
and a girl like Sonam gets punished,

878
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,040
other men like Raja will be safe.

879
00:47:14,240 --> 00:47:16,240
Otherwise, others may meet
the same fate as Raja.

880
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,080
I miss him.

881
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:21,480
I think about Raja often.

882
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,160
Sometimes, I wake up at 5 am,
sometimes at 6 am,

883
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:25,800
and sometimes at 6:30 am.

884
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,800
I sit in front of his photo
for half an hour.

885
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:30,360
I look at him.

886
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,920
I feel he is still
inside this house.

887
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,120
His soul is restless.

888
00:47:43,240 --> 00:47:45,440
If I meet Sonam, I will ask her,

889
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,960
'Sonam, why did you do this?'

890
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,840
'If you didn't want to marry Raja,
you could have refused.'

891
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,480
'What did you gain by killing Raja?
Why did you kill him?'
