Honeymoon Murder: Kangana Ranaut Calls Sonam Raghuvanshi "Dumb", And A Warning

New Delhi:
The death of Raja Raghuvanshi during his honeymoon in Meghalaya has prompted a strong response from BJP MP and actress Kangana Ranaut, who criticised the accused wife on social media.
Kangana Ranaut posted on her Instagram Stories: "How absurd is this!! Woman can't say no to marriage because she is scared of her own parents but she can plan a cold-blooded murder with supari killers. This has been on my mind since morning but not able to wrap my head around it!!! Uuffff getting a headache now!! She couldn't even divorce or run away with her lover."
She added: "How cruel, heinous and above all absurd and dumb. Dumb people should never be taken lightly. They are the biggest threat to any society... We often laugh at them and think they are harmless but it's not true. Intelligent people may damage others for their own good but remember a dumb person has no idea what they are doing !!! Be aware very aware of dumbness around you."
Raja Raghuvanshi and his wife Sonam went missing on May 23 while on their honeymoon in Meghalaya. The case became a murder investigation when Raja's body was discovered in a gorge near Weisawdong waterfalls on June 2, while Sonam remained missing.
Meghalaya Police suspect Sonam hired killers to murder her husband. Madhya Pradesh Crime Branch officers told The Indian Express that 21-year-old Raj Kushwaha, believed to have conspired with Sonam, planned the murder shortly after the couple's wedding.
Sonam surrendered at Nandganj Police Station in Ghazipur district on Sunday night and was arrested. Kushwaha was apprehended in Indore.
Four additional suspects were arrested from different locations in Madhya Pradesh: Akash Rajput, Vishal Singh Chauhan, Raj Singh Kushwaha and Anand.
Raja's family stated that Sonam organised the Meghalaya honeymoon and requested Rs 9 lakh for arrangements. She also convinced him to bring valuable jewellery despite family objections. Sonam, on the other hand, claims she was kidnapped and drugged.

He has been appointed as an assistant advocate general and will represent the state government before judicial platforms in the national capital. His appointment is part of a broader recruitment of 100 law officers by the government, which was officially notified on July 18.

Vikas and his friend Ashish Kumar had been charged with stalking and attempting to kidnap a senior IAS officer's daughter by a court here in October 2017. The trial in the case is ongoing before a Chandigarh court. The complaint in the matter was filed by the daughter of a senior IAS officer, who was 29 at the time of the incident. She had then accused the men of stalking and attempting to abduct her. On August 5, 2017, Vikas, who was 23 at the time and a law student, along with Kumar, had allegedly followed the complainant's car in their SUV and tried to block the way. The charges against them were framed under various Sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including 354d (stalking), 341 (wrongful restraint) and 365 read with 511 (attempt to kidnap).

Refused more servings of chicken and Chinese food, Mumbai man attacks wife

The Mumbai police Wednesday arrested a 38-year-old man for allegedly trying to kill his wife after she could not serve him chicken and Chinese food for dinner. The man, identified as Ajay Arun Dabhade, reportedly hit his wife, Swati Dabhade, 37, with a rod on her head during the altercation. The incident reportedly took place on July 3 at the couple's residence in Trombay Koliwada. According to the Trombay police, the woman sustained head injuries and was rushed to Shatabdi Hospital, where she received treatment. Her condition is now stable. The Trombay police are investigating the matter. In her complaint to the police, Swati stated that when the family was having dinner on July 3, Dabhade asked her to serve him more chicken and Chinese food. 'Swati told him that she could not serve him more as the food was over,' a police sub-inspector said. Enraged by her response, he allegedly picked up an iron rod and hit her on the head. After her recovery, she approached the police and filed a formal complaint. Following her complaint, the police charged Dabhade under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), including sections 109 (attempt to murder), 115(2) (voluntarily causing hurt), 352 (assault), and 3(5) (common intention), and arrested him. The police also booked his mother for allegedly supporting her son. According to the police, their investigations have also revealed that Swati filed a complaint against her husband and in-laws on June 1 this year on charges of dowry harassment. 'Dabhade had been pressuring her to withdraw the case against him and his family. Swati has alleged that Dabhade was also angry at her as she refused to bring Rs 5 lakh from her father's house to run his money-lending business,' another police officer said.
