Ex-Judge Giribala Singh, Twisha Sharma's Mother-In-Law, Arrested By CBI
Giribala Singh - the mother-in-law of Twisha Sharma, who was allegedly found hanging at her marital home earlier this month - was arrested on Thursday in Bhopal by the CBI.
The arrest comes a day after the Madhya Pradesh High Court cancelled her anticipatory bail plea and set aside the relief previously granted to Giribala Singh on May 15 by the 10th Additional Sessions Judge in Bhopal.
"The High Court has taken serious note of certain observations in the case, like seven antemortem injuries on the body of Twisha Sharma, indicating towards a serious crime, non-cooperation by Giribala Singh despite several notices and WhatsApp chats indicating mental harassment of Twisha Sharma. Looking at all this, the High Court has rejected the anticipatory bail of Giribala Singh. Now, it is up to the CBI to decide whether or not a custodial interrogation needs to be done," Advocate General of Madhya Pradesh Prashant Singh said.
