CBI Conducts Crime Scene Reconstruction in Twisha Sharma Death Case Using DummyPreviousNext

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is conducting a crime scene reconstruction in the Twisha Sharma death case at her marital home in Bhopal. Using an 80-kg dummy, investigators will assess the accused Samarth Singh and his mother Giribala Singh's accounts of how Twisha's body was brought down from a hanging position. Giribala was recently arrested after her anticipatory bail was canceled. The case involves allegations of dowry harassment and has drawn Supreme Court attention amid claims of procedural lapses and evidence tampering.
