Twisha, a resident of Noida, married Bhopal resident Samarth Singh in December 2025. Barely five months after her marriage, she was found dead at her in-law's residence on May 12. Her family alleged mental torture and dowry harassment by her mother-in-law Giribala Singh, a retired judge.
Katara Hills police have registered a case against her husband, Samarth, and mother-in-law, Giribala. A Special Investigation Team (SIT) was formed to probe the matter.
The family also accused Giribala of using her powerful connections in Bhopal to influence the case; thus, they demanded an unbiased probe by a central agency like the CBI.
Now, the case will be investigated from scratch by the CBI.
