India, April 28 -- Sonam Raghuvanshi, the main accused in the murder of her husband, Raja Raghuvanshi, during their honeymoon in Meghalaya, has been granted bail by a court in Shillong after three previous pleas were rejected, media reports said.

She has spent 10 months in jail.

Her father and cousin have reached Shillong to submit surety bonds, and her release is expected soon.
