Investigation into the Pune murder case revealed that the alleged rehearsal took place in May. Meanwhile, the police is working on developing timeline of events in exact sequence of date and other details about the conspiracy to murder Agarwal.
According to NDTV report, Siya and Chetan had deleted their entire chat history, including recycle bin data, both before and after the incident. Their mobile phones have been sent to a forensic lab to recover deleted records.
