"My Daughter Faced Pressure After Marriage": Twisha Sharma’s Father Speaks Out

Navnidhi Sharma has spent days protesting outside the Chief Minister's residence in Madhya Pradesh, demanding justice for his daughter Twisha Sharma and a second post-mortem on her body. Twisha's husband, Samarth Singh, a lawyer in Bhopal, remains on the run after his bail was denied. Navnidhi Sharma spoke to NDTV about the events leading to his 33-year-old daughter's death. "They met on a dating app. We came to know about this relationship about a year before marriage. And later we all agreed and gave approval to this relationship," he told NDTV. Twisha's husband, Samarth, and his mother, Giribala Singh, a retired judge, have been accused of murder and dowry harassment. On the question of dowry, Navnidhi Sharma described indirect pressures "common" in such cases.
