The CBI stated in its reply to the High Court that granting bail to Giribala Singh and Samarth Singh would allow them to influence crucial evidence and witnesses. The agency noted that both accused had previously attempted to manage the crime scene and improperly influence the police investigation following Twisha's death.
The primary accused in the high-profile case are Twisha Sharma's husband, Samarth Singh, who is a well-known lawyer, and her mother-in-law, Giribala Singh, a retired judge. Both individuals are currently lodged in Bhopal Central Jail after being arrested by the CBI.
Twisha Sharma passed away under suspicious circumstances on May 12, 2026. While her husband Samarth and mother-in-law Giribala claimed she committed suicide, her family alleged it was murder and rejected the initial post-mortem report conducted in Bhopal, prompting a court-ordered re-post-mortem and a CBI investigation.
