Meghalaya Honeymoon Murder: New CCTV Footage Shows Indore Couple Before They Went Missing — WATCH

CCTV footage shows honeymooners Raja and Sonam Raghuvanshi arriving at a Shillong homestay on May 22, a day before they disappeared.

New CCTV footage has emerged in the Meghalaya murder mystery case, reportedly showing the tourists from Indore—Raja Raghuvanshi and his wife, Sonam —arriving at a Shillong homestay on May 22, a day before they went missing from Meghalaya. The couple was on their honeymoon trip. The authenticity of the video, however, cannot be independently verified by ABP Live.

Both Raghuvanshi and his wife, Sonam, had gone missing on May 23. According to news agency PTI, the couple from Madhya Pradesh had arrived at Mawlakhiat village in Meghalaya on May 22 on a rented scooter, reports news agency PTI. Raja's body was found in a deep gorge near a waterfall in the Sohra area, some 20 kilometres away from the homestay, on June 2.

The footage, recorded by the CCTV at the homestay, showed Raja and Sinam wearing black jackets and carrying a white suitcase. Then, Raja is seen entering the premises and speaking to hotel staff, while Sonam waited outside. She could then be seen removing her jacket and fixing her hair. Later, Raja returns, takes out some belongings from the suitcase, and hands them over to Sonam.

On Friday, the kin of the woman urged the Union government to hand over the case to the CBI after expressing dissatisfaction with the probe of the northeastern state's police. Meghalaya police, who registered a murder case after Raja's body was found, are yet to get clues about Sonam's whereabouts.

"My daughter has been abducted and is still in the clutches of her captors. Meghalaya police is not investigating the matter properly. They have been negligent right from the beginning. I have been seeking deployment of the army from the day they went missing. If it was done in time, they would have been found safely," Sonam's father, Devi Singh Raghuvanshi, told PTI.
