Legal Dispute Arises Over Siya Goyal's Representation in Ketan Agarwal Murder Case
The Ketan Agarwal murder case has seen a legal dispute over accused Siya Goyal's representation after two advocates, Ashutosh Srivastava and Vipul Dushing, claimed to represent her. Srivastava served a Rs 10 crore defamation notice to Siya's brother, Sahil Goyal, alleging defamatory remarks questioning his authority based on a vakalatnama he says Siya signed. However, Siya and her family deny appointing Srivastava, confirming Dushing as her lawyer. The Vadgaon Maval court extended police custody of Siya and co-accused Chetan Chaudhary until July 3 as investigations continue.
