Raja Raghuvanshi Murder Case: Sonam Raghuvanshi, accused of murdering her husband Raja Raghuvanshi, told her family before marriage that she had a love affair with Raj Kushwaha and that she wanted to marry him, multiple reports suggested.

Sonam, as per reports, also warned her mother of “consequences" if she was forced to marry Raja Raghuvanshi, and had said that she should not be held responsible for whatever follows.

The claim was made by Vipin Raghuvanshi, Raja’s elder brother.

According to Vipin, a close acquaintance of Sonam’s family told him that Sonam Raghuvanshi’s mother had forced her to marry within their caste, regardless of her having an affair with someone else.

Vipin was also quoted as saying that Sonam had warned her mother that she should not be held responsible for whatever happens after her marriage to Raja Raghuvanshi.

Raj Kushwaha, Sonam’s alleged lover, is also the prime accused in the murder case of Raja Raghuvanshi.

According to the police, Sonam and Raja had plotted to kill Raja while the couple was on their honeymoon in Meghalaya.

DID SONAM RAGHUVANSHI TELL HER MOTHER ABOUT RAJ KUSHWAHA?

Raja Raghuvanshi’s elder brother alleged that a close acquaintance of Sonam’s family had informed him that “Sonam had confided in her mother that she was in love with someone else."

“However, her mother said, ‘You can love whoever you want, but your marriage will happen within the community’," Vipin was quoted as saying in multiple reports.

As her mother objected to her affair and marriage to Raj Kushwaha, “Sonam responded to her mother, saying, ‘Fine, I will not be responsible for whatever happens after I get married (to Raja Raghuvanshi)," Raja Raghuvanshi’s brother said.

“Vipin alleged that Sonam agreed to compromise and marry Raja, but warned and said, ‘You will see what I do to that person. You all will have to bear the consequences’. No one thought she would kill Raja," NDTV quoted a source as saying.
