Left Mangalsutra At Homestay In Sohra
The brutal murder case took an unexpected turn when police found a ring and Sonam’s mangalsutra from a suitcase that the couple left in the Sohra homestay. It has been learnt that the couple arrived in Sohra on May 22. As they had not booked their homestay beforehand, no rooms were available. They left their suitcase there, given that it would be difficult to carry it on a trek where they intended to go.
