Meerut Murder Case: New Details Emerge About Gruesome Killing of Saurabh Rajput

Muskan Rastogi and Sahil Shukla remain in custody as investigators uncover chilling details of the crime and societal reactions intensify.

Saurabh Rajput was drugged, stabbed, and dismembered by his wife Muskan Rastogi and her lover Sahil Shukla, who sealed his body in a drum with cement to hinder identification.
The accused rehearsed the crime multiple times, purchasing knives and a razor to carry out the murder with precision, and later fled to Himachal Pradesh to mislead authorities.
Both suspects, currently in judicial custody, are reportedly experiencing severe drug withdrawal symptoms and have requested legal assistance as family support diminishes.
The case has sparked widespread public discourse, with the blue drum used in the crime becoming a symbol of fear and societal commentary on declining family values.
Muskan's parents have disowned her and are demanding the death penalty, while reports suggest the case is influencing behavior in personal disputes across the region.
