"She Lost 15 kg, Was Being Harassed": Twisha Sharma's Cousin To NDTV

New Delhi:Days after 33-year-old Twisha Sharma was found dead at her marital home in Bhopal, her cousin Meenakshi shared with NDTV some of her last messages.

Twisha was discovered hanging at her husband Samarth Singh's house in Bhopal's Katara Hills area on May 12. Samarth, a lawyer, is currently on the run.

Police have registered a case of dowry harassment and abetment to suicide against him and his mother, Giribala Singh, a retired judge. 

The couple met through a dating app in 2024 and got married in 2025, but Twisha's cousin Meenakshi described a sharp change in her behaviour after marriage.

"Before marriage, we used to meet every day. We used to go out every day. We used to talk every day. She was such a jolly and happening girl," Meenakshi told NDTV. "

After marriage, she was talking less to me. I asked her what happened. She said she would call but she never did. She sent me a message saying, 'I am trapped.' I texted her that I was worried about her, but her call never came." 

"After marriage, it is not that the girl becomes quiet suddenly. She lost 15 kgs of weight," Meenakshi added.Meenakshi alleged that Samarth's family mentally tortured Twisha after she lost her work-from-home job in Bhopal. 

"She was being harassed. 'How will you get a job now?' 'You are not educated," Meenakshi recounted as accusations made against Twisha. She added that when Twisha became pregnant, Samarth refused to acknowledge the child as his. 

"There is proof of this, Twisha wrote to her mother saying, 'Mummy, he is asking me whose child is this, how can I calm down, how can I keep quiet?'" Meenakshi said.
