Honeymoon Horror in Meghalaya: Wife and Lover Confess to Plotting Husband’s Murder, Say Police

Shillong: In a shocking development in the Meghalaya honeymoon murder case, the main conspirators, Sonam Raghuvanshi and her alleged boyfriend Raj Kushwaha, have confessed to planning and executing the murder of Sonam’s husband, Raja Raghuvanshi. According to Superintendent of Police (East Khasi Hills) Vivek Syiem, both Sonam and Raj admitted to the crime during police interrogation and even helped investigators recreate the crime scene.

The case has gripped national attention due to the brutal nature of the killing and the betrayal involved. Raja Raghuvanshi had accompanied Sonam on what was supposed to be their honeymoon, unaware that it was part of a larger plot to end his life. Police officials stated that Sonam and Raj were in a relationship before her marriage to Raja, and due to family customs and opposition, they decided to eliminate Raja altogether.

SP Vivek Syiem told the media, “They wanted somebody out – I mean Raja – out of this whole scene, because they had a relationship and because of the customs where they had to agree between the parents and all that. So they thought… better get rid of this person.” He further confirmed that the accused showed police how the crime was carried out, and the evidence gathered was strong enough to proceed without the need for a narco test.

“Since they have already admitted to the crime and we have substantial evidence, a narco test is not necessary. Moreover, such tests are banned and not admissible in court,” Syiem added. A narco-analysis test is typically conducted only when there is a lack of evidence or cooperation from the suspects.

In addition to Sonam and Raj, police have arrested three contract killers allegedly hired to carry out the murder: Akash Rajput, Vishal Singh Chauhan, and Anand Kurmi. All five accused are expected to be produced before the court on Thursday. As investigations continue, the case has stirred conversations about relationship pressures, honor, and the deadly consequences of deceit.
