Tragedy Strikes Again: Grandmother of Meghalaya Murder Suspect Dies of Heart Attack

Fatehpur, Uttar Pradesh: The grandmother of Raj Kushwaha, a primary suspect in the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi during a honeymoon trip in Meghalaya, has passed away due to a heart attack. The elderly woman, Ram Lalli, succumbed to the shock of her grandson’s arrest, according to family members.
Ram Lalli had been vocal in defending Raj, insisting on his innocence and alleging he was falsely implicated in the high-profile case. Her husband, Darbari Singh, told reporters that she had been steadfast in her support for Raj ever since his name emerged as a key accused in the murder. “She believed he was being framed,” Darbari Singh said.
The family’s grief compounds the ongoing tragedy surrounding Raja Raghuvanshi’s death, which has gripped public attention. Raj Kushwaha, along with four others, including Raghuvanshi’s wife, Sonam, was arrested in connection with the brutal killing in Meghalaya’s Sohra region. The case, dubbed “Operation Honeymoon” by the police, has revealed a complex web of motives and planning, with investigations still underway to uncover the full truth.

Ram Lalli’s death has sent shockwaves through the family’s ancestral village in Fatehpur district, where she resided with Raj’s elder sister. Most of the family had relocated to Indore 15 years ago in search of better opportunities, leaving Ram Lalli and her granddaughter behind.
As the investigation into Raja Raghuvanshi’s murder continues, the loss of Ram Lalli adds another layer of sorrow to an already devastating case that has captivated the nation.
