A Court in Bhopal Sends Accused in Twisha Sharma’s Death Case to CBI Custody A court in Bhopal on Friday (May 29, 2026) directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to take Samarth Singh and Giribala Singh, the accused in the death of Twisha Sharma, into custody for five days. The two were produced before Justice Shobhana Bhalawe’s court, where the CBI sought their detention to conduct further interrogations. The court granted custody until June 2, following their medical examinations. The CBI plans to question the accused in detail to verify claims about the events leading to Twisha’s death. Twisha Sharma, 33, was found dead at her marital home on the night of May 12. Her family alleges she faced mental harassment and dowry demands from her in-laws, including Giribala Singh, her mother-in-law. Samarth Singh, her husband, denied the allegations, accusing her of being addicted to contraband substances and suffering from a mental illness. The case has drawn significant legal and public attention, with multiple court orders and procedural developments shaping its trajectory. Samarth Singh was arrested by the Bhopal Police’s Special Investigation Team (SIT) on May 22 after evading custody for over a week. His custody was later transferred to the CBI, which took over the case. Giribala Singh was arrested by the CBI on May 28 following a six-hour investigation at her residence in Bhopal. The arrest followed the Madhya Pradesh High Court’s decision to quash her anticipatory bail, which she had been granted on May 15 by a local Bhopal court. The High Court’s intervention came after scrutinizing the circumstances of Twisha’s death. The court noted that several injuries on her body, including one on her head, were antemortem and occurred before her death.#central_bureau_of_investigation #samarth_singh #giribala_singh #twisha_sharma #court_bhopal
MP High Court Revokes Anticipatory Bail for Giribala Singh in Twisha Sharma Dowry Death Case The Madhya Pradesh High Court on Wednesday, May 27, overturned the anticipatory bail granted to Giribala Singh, the mother-in-law of Twisha Sharma, in the alleged dowry death case of the 33-year-old model-actress. The court’s decision came after a detailed review of the evidence, including WhatsApp chats and medical reports, which highlighted the involvement of both Giribala Singh and her son, Samarth Singh, in the harassment and alleged cruelty against Twisha. Twisha Sharma was found hanging in her husband’s residence on the night of May 12, six months after her marriage. Her parents alleged that she faced severe mistreatment, including dowry harassment, from her husband and mother-in-law. The husband, a practising lawyer, had initially sought anticipatory bail but was denied it. He later approached the High Court but withdrew his petition with permission to surrender before the Trial Court. The Trial Court had granted anticipatory bail to Giribala Singh on May 15, citing the FIR and WhatsApp chats that allegedly pointed to her son, Samarth Singh, as the primary accused. However, the State and Twisha’s parents challenged this decision, arguing that the Trial Court failed to consider all the evidence. The High Court bench, led by Justice Devnarayan Mishra, examined the case and noted that the WhatsApp chats contained allegations against both Giribala Singh and her son. The Trial Court, however, had concluded that the accusations were solely against Samarth Singh. The court’s analysis revealed critical discrepancies. The death was determined to be an antemortem hanging, with six other injuries reported.#madhya_pradesh_high_court #samarth_singh #giribala_singh #twisha_sharma #dowry_prohibition_act
Former Miss Pune Twisha Sharma's death has sent shockwaves across the nation, sparking intense debate about societal norms and gender dynamics. The 33-year-old, from Noida, died under mysterious circumstances on May 12 after marrying Advocate Samarth Singh, a lawyer from Bhopal, through a dating app. Her family and Singh's family have been embroiled in bitter disputes over the incident, with allegations of negligence and betrayal surfacing. The tragedy has drawn sharp criticism from prominent figures in the entertainment industry. Renowned playback singer and dubbing artist Chinmayi Sripada took to social media to condemn the mindset of Indian families, accusing them of treating daughters as commodities. In a poignant tweet, she wrote: "Twisha's death is proof that many Indian parents think their daughter is a commodity delivered to the in-laws with no return policy. The girl can die at the in-laws. That is only honorable after Kanya Daan. Ok?" Her comments have ignited discussions about the cultural expectation of dowry and the lack of autonomy for married women. Meanwhile, BJP MP and Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut also expressed her anguish, highlighting the growing crisis of marital violence and financial insecurity faced by women. In an Instagram post, she urged women to prioritize financial independence before marriage, stating: "Every day, we hear tragic news about married women struggling with complex situations. Many educated young women are pleading with their parents to let them live independently, but Indian society has become infamous for abandoning daughters after marriage.#noida #kangana_ranaut #samarth_singh #twisha_sharma #chinmayi_sripada
Twisha Sharma’s Second Autopsy By AIIMS Delhi Team Cleared By High Court The Madhya Pradesh High Court on Friday approved a second autopsy for the body of Twisha Sharma, a model and actor who died under mysterious circumstances in Bhopal. The court’s decision marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into her death, which has drawn widespread public attention and legal scrutiny. The order was issued despite initial resistance from authorities, with the family of the deceased demanding a fresh forensic examination to address alleged lapses in the first postmortem report. The second autopsy will be conducted by a team from AIIMS Delhi, though the procedure will take place in Bhopal, with a special flight arranged to transport the medical experts to the state capital. The court emphasized the need to complete the process as soon as possible, underscoring the urgency of the case. Twisha Sharma, 25, was found dead in her matrimonial home on May 12, 2025—barely five months after her marriage to Samarth Singh, a lawyer. The couple met through a dating app in 2024 and tied the knot in December 2025. Her family has consistently alleged that her death was not a suicide but a case requiring deeper forensic analysis. The family’s petition to the High Court stemmed from their claim that the first autopsy, conducted by a local medical team, failed to account for critical details. They pointed out discrepancies in the postmortem report, including the absence of a detailed account of injuries found on her body and a mismatch between her recorded height in the report and the police documentation. The family also highlighted procedural irregularities, such as the delayed registration of the FIR, which was filed three days after her death.#madhya_pradesh_high_court #aiims_delhi #samarth_singh #twisha_sharma #rekha_sharma
No 2nd Autopsy For Twisha Sharma, Court Rejects Family's Request A local court in Bhopal has denied the family's request for a second autopsy of Twisha Sharma, a 33-year-old woman who died by hanging at her marital home on May 12. The court ruled that the body could be preserved anywhere within Madhya Pradesh, rejecting the family's plea to conduct a second post-mortem examination. While the police had previously stated they had no objection to a second post-mortem, the court's decision has left the family's demands unmet. The family of Twisha Sharma, including her father Navnidhi Sharma, has alleged significant lapses in the investigation. They pointed out that the First Information Report (FIR) was registered three days after her death, raising concerns about the delay in official action. Additionally, the family claims that investigators failed to provide the material allegedly used in the hanging during the initial post-mortem examination. These discrepancies have fueled suspicions of procedural negligence and prompted further scrutiny of the case. Twisha's lawyer has raised several critical issues during the proceedings. One major concern is the lack of detailed documentation of injuries found on her body in the post-mortem report. Another serious discrepancy highlighted is the mismatch between her height as recorded during the post-mortem and the height mentioned in the police report. These inconsistencies have added to the family's frustration and their belief that the investigation is incomplete. The case has taken a troubling turn as unanswered questions persist. The family alleges that key evidence, such as a missing belt, was not accounted for during the initial post-mortem.#all_india_institute_of_medical_sciences #samarth_singh #twisha_sharma #navnidhi_sharma #rekha_sharma
Twisha Sharma's Suicide Case: A Web of Allegations, Public Outcry, and Unresolved Truths The tragic death of 31-year-old model and actress Twisha Sharma in Bhopal has sparked a storm of controversy, with her family alleging domestic violence, the police investigating suspicious circumstances, and the public demanding justice. The incident, which occurred under mysterious conditions, has drawn attention to issues of gender-based violence, judicial accountability, and the challenges of navigating a complex legal system. Twisha, known for her work in the entertainment industry, was found dead in her home on the night of her death. Initial reports suggested she had climbed to the rooftop, but her family and friends have raised questions about the circumstances. Her father, Navnith Sharma, claimed she had been subjected to abuse by her husband, Samarth Singh, and that her injuries were inconsistent with a suicide. "She had multiple bruises and cuts on her body," he told local media, adding that the family refused to take her body for burial due to their belief in foul play. The police, however, have maintained that the case is under investigation, with the postmortem report indicating "multiple injuries" on her body. Despite this, the family has refused to allow the body to be taken for burial, citing their suspicions of murder. "We are not taking the body because we believe she was killed," Navnith said, emphasizing their demand for a thorough inquiry. The case has also drawn the attention of retired judge Giribala Singh, who was reportedly close to Twisha. Her family alleges that the judge, who had previously expressed concerns about her marriage, was involved in the incident. However, Singh denied any wrongdoing, stating that she had been "disgraced" by the family's accusations.#bhopal #twisha_sharma #navnith_sharma #samarth_singh #giribala_singh
