Twisha Sharma, a resident of Noida, died on May 12, 2023, prompting her family to demand a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) inquiry into her death, citing allegations of dowry harassment and mental torture by her husband, Samarth Singh, and in-laws. Major Harshit Sharma, Twisha's brother, emphasized the need for an independent investigation to ensure justice. Samarth Singh was arrested on May 22 in Jabalpur and subsequently remanded to police custody for seven days by a Bhopal court to facilitate further questioning. The Bhopal Commissioner of Police, Sanjay Kumar, reported that Singh had attempted to surrender but was taken into custody after the court denied his request. Meanwhile, AIIMS Delhi has been authorized to conduct an autopsy, with a medical board of four senior doctors dispatched to Bhopal for the procedure. The family alleges that Twisha endured mental harassment and dowry demands from her in-laws, intensifying their call for a thorough investigation into her untimely death.
