In a chilling twist to the ongoing investigation into the alleged murder of Raja Raghuvanshi during his honeymoon in Meghalaya, new details suggest that his wife, Sonam Raghuvanshi, may have deliberately chosen an obscure and treacherous trekking route — a decision now viewed with deep suspicion by authorities.
While most tourists visiting the iconic Double Decker Living Root Bridge in Cherrapunjee begin their journey via the well-trodden Tyrna route, Sonam notably opted for the lesser-known Mawlingkhiyiat trail — a challenging and isolated path seldom taken by visitors. According to sources familiar with the probe, this deviation from the norm is now considered a critical lead in the case.
Investigators believe the choice of trail was not coincidental. Eyewitness accounts indicate that Sonam was seen conversing with a local tour guide at the Tyrna parking area, yet she chose not to follow the usual route. Instead, she guided her husband toward the more secluded Mawlingkhiyiat path — a stretch known among seasoned trekkers for its steep descent and near-total absence of foot traffic. Police suspect that the route may have been carefully selected in advance to avoid public visibility.
The turn of events has prompted investigators to ask pressing questions: Did Sonam possess prior knowledge of the area? Was her decision to bypass the main trail a calculated move? And what role, if any, did this isolated route play in facilitating the crime?
The Mawlingkhiyiat trail — rugged, remote, and strategically hidden from the tourist circuit — has now become a focal point in a murder mystery that continues to grow darker with each passing day.
