The Story in Brief
Former model and actor Twisha Sharma (33), who died at her Bhopal marital home on May 12, was cremated on Sunday after a second postmortem by an AIIMS Delhi team. Her family alleges dowry harassment and abetment to suicide. Her husband Samarth Singh, a lawyer, was arrested after 10 days on the run. Her mother-in-law, former district judge Giribala Singh, is also accused in the case.
Separately, in Delhi’s Swaroop Nagar, a 28-year-old woman named Seema was found hanging at home. Her family alleges dowry harassment. The local SDM has ordered an inquiry. The husband, a vegetable vendor, has not been arrested. Police are awaiting the autopsy report.
The Indian Opinion
The ‘dowry death’ tag is applied mechanically, but two separate cases in one week, Twisha in Bhopal and Seema in Delhi, deserve more than a headline. In Bhopal, the accused claim drug addiction; the family says dowry murder. Without a thorough forensic and financial trail, both narratives remain just that, stories. The real test will be whether the autopsy and call records, not just FIRs, settle which version is closer to the truth.
