Overview
- The CBI told courts it received the second autopsy report from AIIMS Delhi in a sealed cover on Wednesday and is now analysing its findings alongside other evidence.
- Investigators say the new report addresses Twisha Sharma’s pregnancy and alleged abortion and could lead the agency to question the husband and mother‑in‑law again or seek fresh custodial remand.
- The CBI has expanded the inquiry to include dowry and streedhan claims and is working to recover physical items and deleted messages from phones and laptops as potential evidence.
- Both accused remain on 14‑day judicial custody at Bhopal Central Jail where prison officials transferred Deputy Jailer Jaya Yadav after media reports of VIP treatment, even though jail authorities and a state women’s commission said they found no special privileges.
- The case builds on an initial post‑mortem that recorded antemortem hanging and blunt‑force injuries and now raises two key outcomes to watch: whether forensics change the legal theory of death and whether probing jail conduct prompts wider administrative action.
