Why Meghalaya honeymoon murder accused Sonam Raghuvanshi was granted bail by court
Sonam Raghuvanshi, accused of murdering her husband during their honeymoon in Meghalaya in 2025, was granted bail by a Shillong court after it found that police failed to properly inform her of the grounds for her arrest.

Her bail was granted on the condition of a ₹50,000 personal bond and other requirements. The trial had stalled for over two months, which her lawyers argued justified release pending resolution.
