The Central Bureau of Investigation recreated the crime scene of Twisha Sharma's death using a dummy body at a residence in Noida [1].

This reconstruction is a critical step in the probe into the alleged dowry-related harassment and murder of the model. Because the case involves high-profile accused individuals, including a former judge, the precision of the forensic recreation is intended to validate or refute the testimonies provided by the suspects.

Investigators conducted the exercise at the home of Giribala Singh, an ex-judge and the mother-in-law of Sharma [1, 2]. The process involved using a dummy to simulate the position and circumstances of the body at the time of death to determine if the physical evidence aligns with the official accounts of the incident [2, 3].

As part of the ongoing investigation, the CBI questioned Sharma's husband, Samarth Singh, and his mother, Giribala Singh [1]. The agency has filed a fresh first information report as it continues to examine the events leading up to the death [3].

The investigation focuses on allegations of dowry harassment, a practice that remains a significant legal and social issue in India. The use of a dummy body allows forensic experts to analyze the geometry of the crime scene and assess the feasibility of the suspects' claims regarding the death [2].

Authorities have not yet released a final report on the findings of the recreation, but the move indicates a shift toward more aggressive forensic verification in the case [3].

“The CBI recreated the crime scene of Twisha Sharma's death using a dummy body”

The use of a crime scene reconstruction by the CBI suggests that existing testimonies from the husband and mother-in-law may be inconsistent with the physical evidence. By simulating the death with a dummy, investigators are attempting to eliminate gaps in the narrative, which is particularly significant given the legal expertise of the accused ex-judge.
