Investigators are examining CCTV footage from the building where Twisha Sharma was found unconscious after going to the terrace. The visuals and her final call have sharpened questions over the unexplained hour before she was brought downstairs.
The mysterious death of Twisha Sharma in Bhopal has taken a dramatic turn after investigators recovered crucial CCTV footage that now forms the centrepiece of the ongoing probe into her final moments.
The footage, accessed by investigators, allegedly shows Twisha walking up the staircase towards the terrace of the building in a calm and normal condition. Nearly an hour later, another clip shows her husband, Samarth Singh, along with two other men carrying her downstairs in a critical state.
The gap between those two moments — roughly 60 minutes — has now become the biggest focus of the investigation.
According to sources familiar with the probe, Twisha appeared completely normal while climbing the stairs. She was also seen carrying headphones in her hand. After reaching the terrace, she reportedly made a phone call to her mother.
Her mother later told investigators that Twisha spoke about alleged harassment at her marital home during the call. The conversation, according to the family, continued for some time before an unknown voice was allegedly heard in the background and the line suddenly disconnected.
Twisha’s mother suspects the voice may have been that of her husband, Samarth Singh, though police have not officially confirmed this claim.
Minutes later, Twisha’s mother called Giribala Singh, informing her that Twisha was not answering her phone. According to the account shared with investigators, Giribala and Samarth then rushed to the terrace, where Twisha was allegedly found hanging with a gymnastic-style elastic resistance belt.
Subsequent CCTV visuals reportedly show Samarth Singh, a relative living nearby, and a domestic worker bringing Twisha downstairs through the staircase. At one point, they also appear to attempt CPR on the staircase before eventually taking her to hospital.
Investigators are also examining another detail from the footage in which Twisha’s mother-in-law, Giribala Singh, is allegedly seen entering a room briefly before coming downstairs moments later.
The sequence of events has intensified suspicions surrounding the circumstances of Twisha’s death, with her family continuing to allege foul play and demanding an impartial investigation.
The central question investigators are now trying to answer is what exactly happened on the terrace during the one-hour window between Twisha going upstairs and being brought back down unconscious.
