The mysterious death of 33-year-old Twisha Sharma in Bhopal has taken an even more disturbing turn after a chilling letter from the police to her family sparked outrage and emotional trauma. Twisha, who was found hanging from the terrace of her in-laws’ house on May 12, has remained at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences Bhopal mortuary for the past eight days as her family continues demanding a second postmortem examination.

The case, which already involved allegations of dowry harassment, physical abuse, and suspicious forensic inconsistencies, has now intensified after the police informed the family that Twisha’s body could begin decomposing because the mortuary lacks ultra-low temperature preservation facilities.

The heartbreaking communication has left the family devastated, while serious questions are now being raised over the handling of evidence, the missing alleged hanging belt, and contradictions in the postmortem findings.

Police Letter Creates Fresh Shock for the Family

According to reports, Bhopal Police wrote to Twisha Sharma’s parents urging them to take custody of the body and perform the final rites immediately.

The letter reportedly stated that Twisha’s body had been lying in the mortuary for several days and there was a strong possibility of decomposition if it remained there longer.

Police cited technical limitations at the AIIMS Bhopal mortuary, explaining that the body is currently being preserved at around minus 4 degrees Celsius. However, for long-term preservation, temperatures near minus 80 degrees Celsius are generally required — a facility allegedly unavailable at the hospital.

At the same time, police clarified that they have no objection to a second postmortem examination but argued that the body cannot be preserved indefinitely under the current conditions.

The communication has emotionally shaken Twisha’s parents, who had refused to claim the body until an independent second postmortem is conducted.

AIIMS Postmortem Findings Raise Serious Questions

The case became more controversial after preliminary findings from the first postmortem reportedly revealed multiple injury marks on Twisha Sharma’s body.

These injuries have led the family to question whether the death was actually a suicide or something far more sinister.

An even more shocking allegation emerged when it was claimed that the investigating officer did not present the alleged nylon belt — supposedly used for hanging — before the medical board during the postmortem process.

Because the belt was allegedly missing during examination, doctors reportedly could not scientifically match the ligature marks found on Twisha’s neck with the suspected hanging material.

The family has accused investigators of mishandling or possibly suppressing critical physical evidence connected to the case.

Two Parallel Marks on Neck Fuel Murder Suspicion

One of the biggest reasons behind growing suspicion in the case is the presence of two parallel ligature marks on Twisha’s neck.

Forensic experts generally note that in ordinary hanging cases, a single oblique ligature mark is commonly observed. However, the existence of two parallel marks has triggered speculation that strangulation may have occurred before the body was suspended.

This forensic inconsistency has become central to the family’s demand for an independent second postmortem from a reputed national institution.

Twisha’s father, Navnidhi Sharma, has publicly questioned the credibility of the investigation and alleged that the medical findings shown to the family do not match the physical circumstances at the scene.

The family argues that major contradictions between evidence and reports have made the investigation appear deeply suspicious.

WhatsApp Chats Add New Layer to the Investigation

The case has become even more sensitive after alleged WhatsApp conversations between Twisha Sharma and her mother surfaced publicly.

According to reports, the chats suggest that Twisha had been emotionally distressed within months of marriage and felt trapped in the relationship.

The messages allegedly mention:

• Mental harassment
• Physical abuse
• Dowry-related pressure
• Emotional trauma inside the marital home

Twisha had reportedly married advocate Samarth Singh only five months before her death.

The family has accused both her husband and mother-in-law — a former judge — of subjecting her to severe harassment.

Main Accused Husband Still Missing

Police have reportedly declared Twisha’s husband, advocate Samarth Singh, as the main accused in the case. However, he is currently absconding.

Authorities have announced a reward of ₹10,000 for information leading to his arrest.

The family claims that the delay in arresting the accused and the alleged mishandling of evidence are weakening public confidence in the investigation.

Family Demands Independent Medical Review

Twisha Sharma’s family has demanded that a reputed independent national medical institution conduct a second forensic examination to ensure transparency and fairness.

The family says they will continue seeking justice until all contradictions are thoroughly investigated.

They believe an independent review is necessary because:

• Key evidence appears missing
• Injury marks remain unexplained
• Ligature findings are inconsistent
• The initial investigation has raised serious doubts

The case has now become one of the most discussed and emotionally charged incidents in recent weeks, drawing widespread attention on social media and news platforms.

Public Questions Continue to Grow

As the investigation progresses, the case has sparked broader discussions around:

• Dowry harassment allegations
• Forensic transparency
• Preservation of evidence
• Handling of suspicious death cases
• Rights of victims’ families

With the body still lying in the mortuary and the family refusing to proceed with the funeral without further examination, pressure is increasing on investigators to ensure a transparent and credible probe.

The coming days are expected to be crucial in determining whether the case is treated as suicide, abetment, or possible homicide following deeper forensic analysis.
