Authorities in Bhopal are investigating the death of Twisha Sharma amid allegations of evidence tampering and demands for a federal probe [1, 2].
The case has drawn significant attention due to the suspected manipulation of critical evidence and the flight of the primary accused. The escalating demands for high-level oversight reflect a lack of confidence in the initial handling of the investigation [1, 2].
Twisha Sharma's husband, Samarth Singh, is currently at large [1, 2]. While Singh remains missing, his mother-in-law, Giribala Singh, has been granted anticipatory bail [1, 2].
Investigators are now facing calls for a second post-mortem examination and the transfer of the body to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) to ensure forensic accuracy [1, 2]. There are also active demands for a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe and a Supreme Court-monitored investigation into the circumstances of the death [1, 2].
The urgency for these measures follows reports that CCTV footage and call records may have been tampered with [1, 2]. These digital footprints are considered essential for establishing the timeline of events leading to Sharma's death, a task complicated by the absence of the husband [1, 2].
Legal representatives and family members continue to push for a transparent inquiry to prevent further loss of evidence [1, 2]. The focus remains on locating Samarth Singh and verifying the integrity of the existing digital evidence [1, 2].

The demand for a CBI probe and AIIMS intervention indicates a systemic distrust in local police capabilities to secure evidence in high-profile domestic death cases. When digital evidence like CCTV and call logs are allegedly compromised, the case shifts from a standard criminal investigation to a challenge of institutional integrity, where federal oversight becomes the only mechanism to ensure a fair trial.
