Meghalaya’s Special Investigation Team (SIT) revealed that 24‑year‑old Sonam Raghuvanshi has admitted during interrogation to orchestrating the murder of her husband, 29‑year‑old Raja Raghuvanshi, during their honeymoon near Wei Sawdong Falls in Meghalaya . Investigators say she hired three assailants—Akash Rajput, Anand Kurmi, and Vishal Singh Chauhan—paying ₹50,000 through her alleged lover Raj Kushwaha, and shared live location updates to facilitate the crime . Raja’s body was discovered June 2; Sonam surrendered in Ghazipur on June 9, was transported under transit remand to Shillong, and now faces formal confession recording under CrPC Section 164. The case is under intense multi‑state investigation. (PC: MSN)
