If you have been following TV news coverage of Twisha Sharma’s death case, you would have seen statements and videos from her parents, openly blaming and threatening her in-laws family, in particular her husband and the mother-in-law. I saw one video where Twisha’s mother openly says on camera that she would “kill” Samarth Singh, Twisha’s husband. And why? Because she “thought he killed Twisha”!
The important point to consider in this case is that there is so far absolutely no evidence to suggest that Twisha was murdered or forcibly hanged by her husband or in-laws. Since the postmortem at AIIMS Bhopal confirmed sui*ide, her family started demanding second postmortem in Delhi. If that also came out not in their favour, what would be their next demand and where will it end? There has to be some basis to suspect that Twisha’s in-laws were involved and there was some foul play. Perhaps that is the reason why the Bhopal court did not grant second postmortem request to her family. Perhaps they thought that if they granted once, every other family would keep demanding in similar manner. As I said before, there has to be some basis to suspect foul play and so far, there is none.
We have also seen videos and interviews of Twisha’s mother-in-law where she is visibly distressed because of the accusations on her and her son. Twisha’s husband Samarth is absconding, perhaps fearing a witch-hunt and fearing for his life, and would surrender to the court when he feels safe. I am not sure if what he is doing is good or should he risk his life and surrender now to satisfy the media and Twisha’s vengeful family. But one thing is for sure: he is terrified, his mother is terrified, and only Twisha’s parents are to be blamed.
While proper investigation should definitely be carried out to bring out the truth, and now the case is with CBI, at the same time, why should Twisha Sharma’s family be allowed to make sweeping accusations at her in-laws without even an iota of proof? They are carrying out absolute terrorism without regard to what effect their actions could cause. What if the husband witnessing a witch-hunt against him also chooses to take some wrong step? Going by the events so far, Twisha’s mother would certainly be satisfied with such an outcome, and it won’t matter to her whether he was actually guilty or not.
Not only media, but the government and the Police are also being seen sympathetic to Twisha’s family in this witch-hunt. And it has become a very sorry state of affairs. I don’t understand why Twisha’s family should be allowed to openly threaten and terrorise another family merely because of their “hunch feeling”.
Think about it.
