SAMBA, Oct 20: In a swift and determined effort led by Senior Superintendent of Police Samba, Benam Tosh, the Samba Police has successfully unraveled the mystery behind the tragic death of Jyoti Devi, a young pregnant woman from Redwan Ramgarh. Five individuals, including the victim's husband, have been apprehended for their involvement in a dowry death case.
The arrested suspects have been identified as Kala Ram, the husband of the deceased, along with Satpal, Bodh Raj (also known as Parshotam), and two additional individuals.
The case began on June 22, 2023, when the Police Station Ramgarh initiated inquest proceedings under DDR No. 21 to determine the actual cause of death of 24-year-old Jyoti Devi, wife of Kala Ram, and a resident of Redwan in the Ramgarh tehsil of Samba district. The young woman was eight months pregnant at the time and had passed away under mysterious circumstances.
