New evidence has emerged in the brutal murder of Raja Raghuvanshi, whose body was found in Meghalaya on June 2. Police say his wife, Sonam Raghuvanshi, and her alleged lover, Raj Kushwaha, orchestrated a ₹20 lakh contract killing during their honeymoon. Forensic tests confirmed blood on a raincoat and khukri. CCTV footage, call records, travel bookings, and confessions link the suspects. Three men allegedly killed Raja during a trek in Cherrapunji, pushed his body into a gorge, and fled. Sonam surrendered in UP on June 8. Her missing phone and the money trail are key gaps in the probe. (PC: NDTV)
