Aggrieved family members of deceased Twisha Sharma on Wednesday finally could meet Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav. On the other side, Bhopal court has rejected their plea for a second post-mortem examination. For the said meeting with the Chief Minister, Sharma family was struggling since couple of days. They have got assurance from the Chief Minister to fulfill their demands for justice. Talking to ‘The Hitavada’, Twisha’s father Navnidhi Sharma said “the meeting was positive. Chief Minister expressed regret as he could not meet earlier. But he assured us that the State Government will provide support to get justice in the case.” Replying to their demand to hand over the case to CBI as the family has been demanding investigation from a agency outside the State, Chief Minister said that they will write to the CBI in this regard. Despite all this, in a major blow to family’s plea for second autopsy at AIIMS Delhi, the Bhopal District Court has dismissed the plea and raised concerns over the preservation of her body due to the lack of ultra-low temperature storage facilities in Bhopal.

 

More than eight days since death, Twisha Sharma’s body is still in a morgue. On Tuesday, the court had summoned the police diary related to the case. Accused husband Samarth Singh is still remains absconding. What the Bhopal Police Chief has to say on this- Bhopal Commissioner of Police Sanjay Kumar said that they had no objection to a second post-mortem of Twisha Sharma. The application seeking a second autopsy has been attached to the case diary, but decision on the permission rests with the court. All efforts are being in place to arrest Twisha’s husband advocate Samarth Singh. On May 12, 33-year-old Twisha, a Noida woman who was allegedly harassed for dowry, was found dead at her in-laws’ home in Bhopal.

 

Twisha Sharma had been pleading with her mother that she wanted to leave her husband’s home in Bhopal and a chat with her friend also highlights she was experiencing trauma at her in laws house. More than eight days passed, but her family has refused to cremate her as they are demanding fair and independent investigation from an agency outside the state. They said since her in-law is influential people and things can be tempered here. The Bhopal Police have speeded up efforts to apprehend the accused, Samarth Singh, who remains at large in connection with the high-profile dowry death case under the Katara Hills police station jurisdiction. In an effort to intensify the search, the police administration has significantly increased the bounty placed on his capture. According to a new directive issued by Police Commissioner Sanjay Kumar, the reward for providing information leading to the arrest of Samarth Singh has been tripled.
