Five cities, Five wives, and Five heinous conspiracies:
Sometimes, the deceptions woven behind the curtains of love, trust, and familial bonds are so chilling, they send shivers down the spine. Muskan from Meerut, Sushmita from Delhi, and Sonam from Indore — though their names are tied to different cities, their tales reveal the same dark truth of greed, betrayal, and blood-soaked plots. These women's actions shook society to its core. Let us delve into the five macabre conspiracies again, as they harbor tales of sensational deception.
Muskan - Stashed husband in a blue drum
The Sahil Rajput murder case in Meerut left everyone petrified. Muskan, alongside her lover Sahil, ended Sahil's life. They stabbed Sahil, dismembered his body, and concealed it within a blue plastic drum filled with cement. According to the police, this act was executed with meticulous planning. Muskan attempted to mislead both the police and her family, but eventually, her deception was uncovered.

The incident in the Brahmpuri area of Meerut, where Sahil resided with his wife Muskan and daughter, unfolded tragically. Sahil, who worked in a London bakery, seldom visited Meerut. This time, he had come to celebrate his wife and daughter's birthdays, unaware it would be his final journey. Muskan had already conspired with her paramour, Sahil Shukla, to end his life.
Pragati - Andauriya's Dangerous Daughter-in-law
A shocking case emerged from Uttar Pradesh's Auraiya district, where a newlywed woman masterminded her husband’s murder with her lover. Pragati Yadav married her husband on March 5, 2025, but just 14 days later, on March 19, she plotted his demise. The young man was found critically injured in a wheat field near Palia village, creating an uproar among locals who immediately informed the police.

Police transported the man to a hospital, and due to his critical condition, he was referred to a higher institution, where he succumbed to his injuries three days later. The victim was identified as Pragati Yadav's husband. The thorough investigation involved police teams exploring CCTV footage, revealing a suspect transporting Pragati's husband on a bike. When questioned intensively, both Pragati and her lover admitted their entire sordid plot.
Sonam - Killer Honeymoon in Meghalaya
Sonam Raghuvanshi from Indore conceptualized a murder so cinematic it eclipsed fiction. Just 12 days after marriage, in Meghalaya's forests, she orchestrated her husband Raja Raghuvanshi's murder. Sonam, her lover Raj Kushwaha, and three others executed this plan within Meghalaya's Cherapunjee (Sohra) area on May 23, committing the heinous act during their honeymoon trip.

Raja (29) married Sonam (25) on May 11 in Indore. A mere few days later, on May 20, they traveled to Meghalaya via Guwahati for their honeymoon. Tragically, hours after checking out from a homestay in Nongriat village in East Khasi Hills on May 23, Raja vanished. His mutilated body was discovered near the Sohra’s Waisadung Falls on June 2. Police investigations revealed Sonam's orchestration, with her lover Raj Kushwaha complicit. Five suspects, including Vishal Chauhan, Akash Rajput, and Anand Kurmi, have been arrested and are in judicial custody.
Sushmita - The Electrocution Killer in Delhi
In Delhi, Sushmita attempted to disguise her husband Karan's murder as suicide. Due to her illicit relationship with her brother-in-law Rahul, she schemed to eliminate her husband. Sushmita administered sleeping pills first, and when those failed, dissolved them in water. When he proved resistant, she and Rahul delivered electric shocks, resulting in death.

Sushmita concocted a storyline with her brother-in-law, portraying the incident as accidental. While in the hospital with Karan, post-mortem findings exposed Sushmita's plot, with strangulation marks and electrical wounds revealing the truth. Police arrested both Sushmita and her accomplice. The parallel to Muskan’s craft astonished investigators.
Malti Devi - The Enemy Within
From Malakiya Bajha Khurram village in Uttar Pradesh's Kaushambi district came a shocking tale where Malti, a daughter-in-law, plotted to poison her entire in-law’s family. Malti, overwhelmed by frequent domestic disputes and mental distress, conspired with her father and brother, attempting to mix poison into the family's bread. Her sister-in-law detected a strange smell in the dough, exposing the lethal conspiracy.

Noticing the contaminated dough, the family reported it to the police. Malti confessed, admitting her father, Kallu Prasad, and brother Bajrangi supported the plan. Her husband was working in Saudi Arabia during this time. Authorities arrested the trio, and forensic experts are examining the poisonous dough samples. This conspiracy has sparked intense discussion in the village.
All five cases reflect a chilling theme - betrayal instead of trust and blood-soaked plots hidden behind relationships. These incidents serve as a stark reminder to remain vigilant and cautious within relationships.
Cities changed, names changed... but conspiracies and hatred remained similar
Despite the varied backdrops, each conspiracy was more harrowing than the last. There was poison in food, knives, meticulous planning, and betrayal. These events demonstrate that when hatred settles in the heart, relationships, laws, and humanity are discarded. We need to comprehend, assess, and nurture relationships to prevent more tragedies like these involving Malti, Muskan, Sushmita, or Sonam.
