SIT chief Kharkongor told ANI that four people have been arrested in connection with the case. These individuals will be presented in court and later brought to Shillong on transit remand.
“Our team is about to reach Ghazipur and will formally arrest Sonam and take her transit remand,” he said.
He added that their team overcame difficult terrain and poor weather to recover the body and initiate the investigation. “We formed the SIT with capable officers in the case,” he said.
Two teams were also sent to Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh to track suspects. While details remain under investigation, early signs point to strained relations between Raja and Sonam.
Alleged affair and murder conspiracy angle
According to Rajesh Dandotiya, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police in Indore, 25-year-old Sonam was allegedly involved in a relationship with Raja Kushwaha.
Kushwaha is accused of hiring Vishal Chauhan, Anand Kumar, and Akash Rajput to carry out the killing.
Sonam allegedly assisted in the plan by sharing her husband’s location with the attackers.
