Raj orchestrates Raja's murder, plans to deceive police
Police say Indore businessman Raja Raghuvanshi's murder was no random crime—his wife Sonam allegedly teamed up with her boyfriend Raj Kushwaha to plan it all. The plot even included killing another woman to fake Sonam's own death and throw off investigators, and it was set in motion before Raja and Sonam got married on May 11.
TL;DR
How the crime unfolded
After Raja and Sonam went missing on May 23, Raja's body turned up near Weisawdong Falls in Meghalaya on June 2. Sonam tried to escape by traveling across states in disguise before surrendering days later. Police have now arrested Raj and three others suspected of helping carry out the plan, and all are currently in custody as the investigation continues.
