Raja Raghuvanshi Murder Case: Sonam’s Parents Deny Claims Of Her Affair With Raj

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The parents of Sonam Raghuvanshi, accused in the murder case of her husband Raja Raghuvanshi, have denied any affair between their daughter and co-accused Raj Kushwaha, claiming she is being wrongly implicated. They are also dissatisfied with media reporting.

Sonam’s father Devi Singh expressed disbelief over her involvement and said he still wanted to meet her face-to-face to know the truth. “If she says she didn’t do it, we will stand by her. But if she admits to it, there’s no reason to meet again,” he said.

Dismissing claims of an affair, he said that Sonam and Raj worked in different departments of the factory—Raj in the warehouse and Sonam in the office—and only interacted occasionally for work. “For three years, Sonam tied rakhi on Raj’s wrist. Would someone with such a bond do this?” he questioned.

Sonam’s mother Sangeeta also rejected the allegations of a forced marriage, saying that both Sonam and Raja willingly agreed to the match after private conversations. She confirmed the marriage proposal came in February and that horoscopes were matched before the engagement.

“We never forced her. If we had known she loved someone else, we would have endorsed her choice,” said Sangeeta.
