A new angle has emerged in the Ketan Agarwal murder case after discussions over his use of a hair patch. However, investigators maintain that this alone cannot explain the alleged motive behind the crime.
Ketan’s father, Vishal Agarwal, confirmed that his son wore “a small patch of wig” but said Siya Goyal and her family had already been informed before the engagement.
“It is true that Ketan wore a small patch of wig. Siya and her family had been informed about it before the engagement. If she had any issues, she should have said no. What was the need to kill my son?” he told reporters.
Vishal Agarwal also denied allegations that Ketan had planned the trek to Lohagad Fort, claiming it was Siya who wanted to go.
Police allege that on June 18, Siya Goyal and her boyfriend, Chetan Chaudhary, pushed Ketan into a 300-foot gorge at Lohagad Fort and tried to portray the incident as an accidental fall while he was posing for photographs.
Investigators say the murder was premeditated and that there had been multiple earlier attempts to kill Ketan before the fatal incident.
