Meghalaya honeymoon murder: Raja Raghuvanshi was murdered in Meghalaya during his honeymoon trip with his wife, Sonam Raghuvanshi.
A day after the Meghalaya police blamed Sonam Raghuvanshi and her alleged lover Raj Kushwaha for her husband Raja Raghuvanshi’s murder, the accused’s distraught mother said her son was innocent and was falsely implicated in the sensational crime. She also refuted the police’s claim that Kushwaha had an affair with Sonam, saying they used to work together in the woman’s brother’s factory.
“My son can never murder anyone. He is just 20 years old. I have not had water for three days…He used to work at Sonam’s brother’s factory. Sonam used to work in the same factory. Won’t you talk if you work together? My son is framed in the case. I pray that God will prove my son to be innocent,”
Raja Raghuvanshi was murdered in Meghalaya during his honeymoon trip with his wife, Sonam Raghuvanshi. The police said on Monday that Sonam and Raj Kushwaha had an affair and hired killers for the murder.

The accused’s family said he hadn’t left Indore since the couple went on their honeymoon.
“My brother is innocent. My brother Raj did not go anywhere. You can ask the people at his office. My only demand is that my brother should be released. He is not involved in the murder. My brother is innocent. Vicky and Raj are both my brothers, and they can never do something like this,”
