The tragic death of Twisha Sharma, a 33-year-old former Miss Pune contestant, has ignited public outrage and calls for justice following allegations of dowry harassment. Twisha was found hanging at her home in the Katara Hills area of Bhopal on the night of May 12, 2023. Her family claims she endured continuous mental harassment and domestic violence from her husband, Samarth Singh, and mother-in-law, retired district judge Giribala Singh. An FIR has been filed against both individuals, citing dowry demands and domestic abuse.

In a chilling final Instagram message, Twisha expressed feelings of being trapped, raising concerns about her mental state leading up to her death. Her brother, Major Harshit Sharma, has accused her in-laws of pressuring her to transfer financial assets and forcing her to terminate a pregnancy, which she wanted to continue. The post-mortem examination revealed multiple injuries and ruled out intoxication, complicating the investigation. A Special Investigation Team has been established to thoroughly investigate the case, as Twisha's family demands justice and a fair inquiry.
