Fresh allegations have surfaced in the sensational case involving a 23-year-old woman, who is accused of plotting her mother's murder for property and a government job, with her maternal uncle now demanding a probe into her father's death, claiming she may have had a role in it too.

Police have arrested seven people, including the woman, Ayushi Sharma, and her paternal uncle Mohan Swaroop (56). Mohan's son Balaram Sharma is absconding. Ayushi's maternal uncle, Rakesh Sharma, raised suspicion of a conspiracy driven by greed for property worth Rs 14-15 crore.

It is being alleged that Ayushi's father, who was earlier undergoing treatment for a brain tumour, had significantly recovered in the hospital but was forcibly discharged and kept at an unknown rented location. "From December till April last year, he was kept hidden. When I finally contacted doctors, they said his condition was critical... If police investigate properly, it will come out that Ayushi and Balram had a role in his death as well," Rakesh said.

Ayushi's mother, Neeraj Sharma (45), died on July 3 after being hit by a speeding vehicle. Police said Neeraj had secured a clerical job (LDC) in court on compassionate grounds following the death of her husband Vijay Kumar Sharma. The accused daughter allegedly wanted the job for herself. Responding to the allegations, DCP Ranjeeta Sharma said the police have taken note of the complaint and assured a thorough probe.
