No Remorse: MP High Court Quashes Bail of Ex-Judge in Twisha Sharma Death Case The Madhya Pradesh High Court on Thursday revoked the anticipatory bail granted to retired district judge Giribala Singh in the high-profile dowry death case of Twisha Sharma, a 33-year-old woman found dead at her matrimonial home in Bhopal on May 12. The court’s decision to quash the bail order, issued just hours after the FIR was registered against Singh, sparked significant legal and public debate. The order was delivered by Justice Devnarayan Mishra, who criticized the trial court for failing to adequately assess the gravity of the allegations and the evidence collected during the investigation. The case centers on the death of Twisha Sharma, whose husband, Samarth Singh, and mother-in-law, Giribala Singh, were charged under Sections 80(2), 85, and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, as well as Sections 3 and 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. The FIR was registered on May 12, and within hours, the Bhopal Sessions Court granted anticipatory bail to Giribala Singh, a decision that drew widespread scrutiny. The High Court’s intervention came after petitions filed by Twisha Sharma’s father, Navnidhi Sharma, and the State Government challenged the bail order, which was issued on May 15 by the 10th Additional Sessions Judge. During the hearing, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Madhya Pradesh Government, argued that the manner in which anticipatory bail was granted raised serious questions about judicial discretion. He contended that the trial court did not consider the material evidence or the seriousness of the allegations against Giribala Singh.#central_bureau_of_investigation #madhya_pradesh_high_court #giribala_singh #twisha_sharma #navnidhi_sharma
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
Supreme Court Takes Charge in Twisha Sharma's Death Case Amid Allegations of Impartiality The Supreme Court of India has taken charge of the controversial case surrounding the death of Twisha Sharma, a 23-year-old woman from Noida, whose family alleges she was murdered by her in-laws, while the latter claim it was a suicide. The court’s intervention comes after concerns were raised about the impartiality of the investigation, given the involvement of her husband, a lawyer, and her mother-in-law, a retired judge. Post-Mortem Controversies and CBI Involvement Twisha’s body was found on May 12 in her in-laws’ home in Katara Hills, Bhopal. The initial post-mortem report stated the cause of death was suffocation, but the family disputes this, citing multiple injuries on her body, including bruises on her left hand, red marks on her wrists, and other wounds consistent with physical struggle. They allege tampering with evidence and pressure from influential figures to sway the investigation. Following public outcry, the Madhya Pradesh government recommended transferring the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for a fresh probe. The state government’s order, issued by Home Department Secretary Krishnaveni Desavatu, mandates the CBI to investigate the matter. The Supreme Court has also directed the state to submit a detailed report within seven days, emphasizing the need for transparency. Family vs. In-Laws: A Clash of Narratives Twisha’s family maintains that she was subjected to emotional and financial harassment by her in-laws, leading to her suicide. They claim the post-mortem report was manipulated to cover up the truth, with evidence suggesting foul play.#noida #central_bureau_of_investigation #madhya_pradesh #supreme_court_of_india #twisha_sharma
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.

Twisha Sharma Death Case: Legal Battle Over Postmortem and Family's Petition The death of Twisha Sharma, a 24-year-old model and actress, has sparked a legal and emotional battle as her family challenges the findings of the postmortem report conducted by the police. Sharma, who was married for just five months, was found dead in Bhopal on October 10, 2023. Her family alleges that the initial postmortem examination was flawed and that the police failed to provide critical evidence, including the material used to allegedly cause her death. The family filed a petition with the Madhya Pradesh High Court, requesting a second postmortem to address discrepancies in the police report. They argued that the report’s details about Sharma’s body measurements did not match the findings from the initial examination. The court initially rejected the family’s plea, but on October 25, 2023, it granted permission for a second postmortem to be conducted at the Delhi Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Bhopal. The family’s petition highlighted several concerns. They claimed that the police did not provide the material used in the alleged suicide, which they believe is crucial to understanding the circumstances of her death. Additionally, they pointed out that the police registered the FIR three days after her death, raising questions about the timeline of events. The family also alleged that Sharma had been subjected to harassment and mental distress, as evidenced by messages she sent to her mother and a friend before her death. Sharma’s husband, who was reportedly in hiding, recently surrendered to the court after withdrawing his bail petition. The trial court has since allowed him to appear for the trial.#bhopal #madhya_pradesh_high_court #twisha_sharma #delhi_institute_of_medical_sciences_aiims #mugugalu
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
Kangana Ranaut Condemns Domestic Violence After Twisha Sharma's Death The mysterious death of Twisha Sharma has sparked widespread outrage across India, with actress Kangana Ranaut condemning the systemic violence faced by married women. Sharma, a former Bollywood actress who transitioned into academia and personal life, died under unclear circumstances, prompting allegations of harassment against her in-laws. Her lawyer, Samar Singh, and her mother-in-law, Girija Singh, are accused of subjecting her to emotional and physical abuse for financial reasons. The case has ignited discussions about the treatment of women in patriarchal societies and the lack of legal protections for married women. Kangana, a BJP MLA and prominent actor, has long been vocal about issues of gender inequality and patriarchal control. In her recent comments, she criticized the societal norms that perpetuate the marginalization of married women. "Every day, news of married women being harassed or even driven to suicide surfaces," she said. "Many educated women are forced to seek help from their families, but the history of this uncivil Indian society is marked by the abandonment of married women." Her remarks highlight the deep-rooted issues of domestic violence and the failure of legal and social systems to protect women. In response to Sharma's death, Kangana urged women to prioritize their careers and independence. "My advice to women is not to rely on social media or dating apps," she stated. "Focus on your profession or career. Every person in your life can be significant, but ensure it doesn’t compromise your professional identity." She emphasized the importance of self-reliance, stating, "Only when you are fully independent should you consider a partner. Remember, no one will save you from your struggles.#bjp #kangana_ranaut #twisha_sharma #samar_singh #girija_singh

The police chief stated that the family’s request for a second autopsy had been included in the case diary, but the final decision rested with the court. Kumar emphasized that the police had completed their investigation and were not opposed to the second examination, though the process would take time. The case gained attention after a Judicial Magistrate First Class court scheduled to review the case diary on May 20, 2026, following a plea by Twisha’s family.

The family alleged that the initial postmortem, conducted in Bhopal, was influenced by Giribala’s sister, a surgeon based in the city, who they claimed could sway the findings.#all_india_institute_of_medical_sciences #sanjay_kumar #giribala_singh #twisha_sharma #bhopal_police
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
