Raj Kushwaha is alleged to be the boyfriend of Sonam. It was reported that Raj Kushwaha was no more than a grieving friend to Devi Singh Raghuvanshi, when the victim's body was brought home, and Devi was apparently taking grief counseling from him.

While sharing the video on Instagram, Shrasti captioned it, “Raj Kushwaha was seen with Sonam's father at Raja's house.”

Raja's influencer sister, Shrasti Raghuvanshi, who spoke in a video post - updating on developments in the murder case - also shared a video clip that showed Raj Kushwaha, hugging and comforting Sonam's father, Devi Singh Raghuvanshi, while Raja's funeral took place.

Raja's mother, Uma Raghuvanshi, also said witnesses saw Raj among Sonam's father during the wedding. While she didn't overtly accuse her daughter-in-law of the murder, Uma asked where her daughter-in-law was and why did Sonam leave Raja without trying to save him.

In the meantime, Shrasti kept on posting on Instagram until she found what she was looking for, in one emotional video, with hosting a wedding photo of Raja and Sonam, she said, “My brother had vowed to be with Sonam for seven lives, but he couldn't even stay for seven days. What had he done to deserve this?. You could have eloped if you liked someone else. Why kill him?"

At this moment, Sonam's father Devi Singh Raghuvanshi also claimed Raj Kushwaha was being wrongly implicated in his daughter's case, and if he needed to, he would send a legal notice to Meghalaya police.
