A man standing outside the Indore airport tried to hit one of the accused in the Meghalaya honeymoon murder case as Shillong Police escorted them inside.
In a short video posted on social media, a man can be seen taking a swing at one of the accused as Shillong Police tries to escort them inside the Indore airport as quickly as possible.
All five accused in the murder case, including Sonam Raghuvanshi, were sent to transit custody after they were produced in a district court on Monday and Tuesday.
Raja Raghuvanshi was allegedly killed by his wife Sonam while the newly-wed couple was on their honeymoon in Meghalaya. His body was found in a gorge on June 2, ten days after the couple had gone missing. Sonam had surfaced at a dhaba in Ghazipur on June 9.
Cops have named Sonam as the prime accused, and arrested – Akash Rajput, Vishal Singh Chauhan, Raj Singh Kushwaha, and Anand Kurmi – other accused in connection with the Meghalaya honeymoon murder case.
Meghalaya Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong on Tuesday said that some of the accused have confessed to the crime, and all of the arrested accused will be taken to Shillong tomorrow, if not tonight.
“All the accused have been arrested in different places – one in Madhya Pradesh, other in UP… Some of them have also confessed about the crime committed by them… We have got the transit remand, most likely if not tonight, then tomorrow all of them will be in Shillong,” he told ANI.
