Muskan Rastogi and her lover Sahil Shukla, accused of murdering Muskan's husband Saurabh Rajput, broke down emotionally during a recent virtual court appearance, which was the first time they saw each other since their arrest.

The bail application of Muskan and her friend Sahil in the Saurabh Rajput murder case in Meerut was not heard on Wednesday. The bail application will be heard on 1 May and the murder case on 9 May. On Wednesday itself, Muskan and Sahil met Senior Jail Superintendent Dr. Viresh Raj Sharma and asked to be released on bail at the earliest. During this meeting, Muskan and Sahil cried. The jail superintendent told the two to talk to the government advocate concerning the bail.

Muskan And Sahil, The Murderers, Met The Jail Superintendent

The police arrested Sahil and Muskan after the case, who were produced in court on March 19, and jailer ordered the two to 14 days judicial custody.  At the time the bail was applied for on March 27 by counsel for Sahil and Muskan, the jail order was still in place, and they were still in remand.

On Wednesday, Muskan was permitted to meet with the senior jail superintendent along with two other female inmates when she pleaded with tearful eyes “please get us bail…”. Muskan stood with her hands folded and tearfully prayed: “please, get us bail”.  The senior jail superintendent reported that they had been assigned a government advocate, as per jail manual. The government advocate will come to court and make a report to the bail application.

Government advocate Rekha Jain, in the bail plea submitted on April 24 on behalf of Muskan and Sahil, claimed that the main ground for the bail plea motion was the delay in the registration of the case after the whole murder. She claimed Muskan and Sahil cannot be proven to have committed the murder as there were no eyewitnesses to the murder. The Brahmpuri police submitted a note opposing the granting of bail. After hearing the matter, the Court rejected the bail plea and scheduled the matter for a next hearing on May 9.
