Pune: A screenshot claiming to show a Snapchat conversation involving Siya Goyal has surfaced on social media, just days after she was remanded to judicial custody in the alleged murder of Pune realtor Ketan Agarwal.
As per online reports, the chat allegedly depicts Goyal requesting a friend to provide front and back images of an Aadhaar card, reportedly to book tickets connected to her wedding.
The message allegedly reads: "Send the front and back of your Aadhaar card. It’s for wedding tickets for a ceremony that was never actually going to take place, but send them anyway."The friend allegedly replies that the Aadhaar card images had already been shared over WhatsApp.
The screenshot went viral after a Pune court on Friday remanded Goyal (20) and her alleged partner, Chetan Chaudhary (22), to 14 days of judicial custody in connection with the Ketan Agarwal murder case.
The pair stand accused of killing 25-year-old realtor Ketan Agarwal by allegedly pushing him off a cliff at Lohagad Fort in Pune district on June 18. Agarwal and Goyal were reportedly set to marry in November.
During Friday’s hearing, the prosecution requested an extension of police custody, arguing that investigators required additional time to interrogate the accused after retrieving chats with allegedly coded language from their mobile phones. The court, however, denied the request and placed both accused in judicial custody until July 16.
