One very disturbing case from Maharashtra is now taking another turn,and honestly,the details coming out are making everything feel even more calculated than it first appeared .
Siya Goyal,accused in the murder of her own fiancé,realtor Ketan Agarwal,has officially agreed to undergo polygraph test . Her lawyer Vipul Dusing confirmed this to Lonavala Rural Police on Thursday . And this one development is being seen as significant moment in investigation that has already shocked a lot of people.
For those just catching up — Agarwal was allegedly pushed from cliff at Lohagad Fort in Maharashtra on June 18 . Drop from that spot is approximately 400 feet . No eyewitnesses were present at moment of incident,which is exactly why investigators are now depending heavily on technical evidence and these polygraph tests.
What is making this case especially unsettling is what police say happened before the actual incident.
According to police reports,Goyal and her alleged accomplice Chetan Chaudhary had actually rehearsed act beforehand . That rehearsal allegedly took place in May near hillock close to club in Lullanagar . Police also took Goyal to location in Pune where she reportedly identified exact spot where this rehearsal occurred . So we are not talking about one impulsive moment here — this appears to be something that was planned out well in advance.
Three key points standing out in investigation right now:
- Polygraph tests planned for both Goyal and Chaudhary to verify their conflicting statements .
- Clothing worn by Goyal on day of incident recovered from her residence during search.
- Digital data including messages and calls being analyzed to trace planning stages of alleged crime.
Both accused have been in police custody since the incident . Investigators are now trying to establish whether there was clear arrangement between Goyal and Chaudhary before the attack — including whether Goyal gave any kind of signal to Chaudhary and what exactly was discussed between them at cafe they visited day before murder.
And that cafe detail is not small thing . Meeting day before,rehearsal done weeks earlier,technical data being examined… none of this paints picture of spontaneous act .
Since there are no eyewitnesses,prosecution's entire case is going to depend on circumstantial evidence,digital data,and what these polygraph results reveal . Polygraph findings are not directly admissible in court in India,but they can still guide investigation and help police understand where their case stands.
Honestly,the level of alleged premeditation here — location scouting,rehearsals,coordinated planning — makes this whole thing feel deeply disturbing in way that is hard to explain . This was someone she was engaged to marry.
And the question that does not go away easily is whether polygraph test will actually bring any clarity… or whether truth will keep getting buried under conflicting statements,missing witnesses,and silence.
