Overview

  • Investigators brought husband Samarth Singh and mother‑in‑law Giribala Singh to their Katara Hills home for a full crime‑scene recreation using an 80‑kilogram dummy to check whether the accused’ accounts were physically possible.
  • The reconstruction follows post‑mortem findings that Twisha Sharma died from antemortem hanging and that her body bore multiple ante‑mortem injuries, which CBI forensic teams are now reconciling with the reenactment.
  • CBI has built a 'tunnel‑view' digital timeline that merges CCTV, call and location logs, Wi‑Fi records and chats, and the agency is comparing those records with the dummy tests and scene measurements.
  • The probe is also examining evidence‑handling gaps, including allegations the ligature belt was delayed in being logged and selective CCTV clips circulated, and has summoned the doctor linked to an MTP and Twisha’s psychiatrist for questioning.
  • After completing a five‑day CBI remand, the two accused were produced in court on June 2 as the agency widens its enquiry into who sheltered or aided Samarth while he was absconding and into possible witness intimidation.
