Kirti Vyas murder case: Court rejects bail petition of accused

Mumbai | Friday | 17th August, 2018

Summary:

Sahjwani (42) and Siddhesh Tamhankar (28) were arrested in May this year, nearly two months after Vyas went missing on March 16. A SESSIONS court on Thursday rejected the bail application of Khushi Sahjwani, the B-Blunt salon employee arrested for the alleged murder of her colleague, Kirti Vyas. The police claimed to have found in Sahjwani’s car a drop of blood that matched with the DNA of Vyas’ parents. Opposing the bail plea, special public prosecutor Raja Thakare submitted that though the body has not been found, there is circumstantial evidence that shows Sahjwani’s involvement, including the call records and CCTV footage of the day when Vyas went missing. The police also claimed that Tamhankar had strangulated Vyas in Sahjwani’s car and that her body was disposed of later that night in a creek off Wadala..
