BHOPAL: <\/em>The Twisha Sharma death case has taken another major turn after a Bhopal court sent her husband Samarth Singh to seven-day police custody<\/strong>. The case has been in national headlines ever since Twisha Sharma was found dead at her matrimonial home in Bhopal on May 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Police registered an FIR against Samarth Singh and his family under Sections 80(2) and 85<\/strong> of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita<\/a><\/strong> related to dowry death and cruelty<\/strong>, along with provisions of the Dowry Prohibition Act<\/a><\/strong>. Since then, the matter has become highly sensitive and widely discussed across social media and news platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to reports, Samarth Singh appeared before the Jabalpur District Court after withdrawing his anticipatory bail plea from the Madhya Pradesh High Court. Police later took him into custody and produced him before Judicial Magistrate First Class Anudita Gupta<\/strong> in Bhopal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the hearing, police demanded seven days\u2019 custody. They argued that custodial interrogation was needed for \u201cspot verification, seizure of additional evidence, and recording detailed statements.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Police also claimed they wanted to investigate where Samarth Singh stayed during the last few days and whether anyone helped him while he was allegedly avoiding arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Advocate Ankur Pandey, appearing for Twisha Sharma\u2019s family<\/strong>, supported the police demand and argued that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSustained interrogation was necessary to piece together the chain of evidence.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n On the other side, Samarth Singh\u2019s lawyer Advocate Enos George Carlo<\/strong> opposed long police custody and argued that one day was enough because police had already seized important documents and evidence. The defence maintained that there was no need for extended custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The court finally accepted the police request and granted seven-day remand<\/strong>. The court also directed Samarth Singh to surrender his passport. Earlier, police had issued a lookout notice and announced a reward regarding his arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The case has also created controversy because many people are questioning whether the investigation is being influenced by public pressure and media coverage even before trial begins<\/strong>. Supporters of Samarth Singh argue that allegations alone should not be treated as proof of guilt and that every accused deserves a fair investigation under law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, the Madhya Pradesh High Court has issued notice on pleas challenging anticipatory bail granted to Samarth Singh\u2019s mother, retired judge Giribala Singh. The High Court also directed a second post-mortem examination by a team of AIIMS Delhi doctors in Bhopal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the proceedings, reports claimed that Samarth Singh appeared calm inside the courtroom. Some people present there said he showed \u201cno visible nervousness or remorse\u201d<\/em><\/strong> and remained \u201ccalm and confident\u201d<\/em><\/strong> throughout the hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the investigation continues, the case is now becoming an important test of whether the legal process will remain balanced and evidence-based instead of being driven by emotional narratives and public outrage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
