The Murder That Spoke in Ten Voices, We @ Outrageously Yours decoded each one. All outrageous. All systemic.



🌍 Everyone wants to punish Sonam Raghuvanshi. But what if she’s not the disease—just a symptom?

🌍 What if the real accused is the society that shaped her, trapped her, and finally—triggered her?

🌍 This isn’t a defence of one woman. This is a charge sheet against the system.

🌍 This isn’t a whodunnit. It’s a whydunnit.

TEN DIFFERENT FACETS – TEN DIFFERENT VOICES

We’ve decoded ten voices behind this murder. Each voice reveals a deeper flaw—not in Sonam, but in the world around her.

1. The Arranged Marriage Time Bomb

We still dress up control as tradition. "Choice" is just a word. When families force-fit two people into a photo-op marriage, something’s bound to blow.

This wasn’t a murder. It was an escape.

2. Love as a Crime Blueprint

Affair. Betrayal. Planning. Murder. When love gets no legitimacy, it finds illegitimate exits. The crime triangle replaces the love triangle.

When society blocks love, it brews violence.

3. Life Is Cheap. Insurance Pays More.

â‚č50,000 was the alleged cost of a human life. We’ve monetized death. In a capitalist morality, even murder is an investment.

What she couldn’t earn in life, she could gain in payout.

4. The Performance of Happiness

From vacation selfies to a body in a gorge. Social media creates the illusion of joy even as reality decomposes.

We curate smiles. We conceal screams.

5. The Court of Public Opinion

Before courts heard evidence, India heard outrage. Family, media, society—all screamed: death penalty. No trial. No nuance.

When the mob is the judge, justice becomes vengeance.

6. Gender-Neutral Guilt

When a man kills, he's called a monster. When a woman kills, she becomes a headline. But crime knows no gender. Neither should our shock.

Evil is equal-opportunity.

7. Murder by Middle Class

This wasn’t a gangster plot. It was middle-class, educated, transaction-based. It proves morality is not about class. It’s about control.

A home loan, a honeymoon, a homicide.

8. Surveillance Kills Secrecy

CCTV, phone pings, digital trails—her crime unravelled not by a witness, but by data. In today’s world, every act is archived.

Privacy is dead. Crime is dying with it.

9. Patriarchy’s Last Trick: Forced Femininity

Raised to obey. Married to submit. Loved to stay quiet. When women break those scripts, society calls them dangerous.

She didn’t snap. She rewrote the story.

10. A System That Raised the Weapon

Did Sonam raise the blade? Maybe. But who raised Sonam? Who gave her no room to fail, no right to choose, no space to be human?

Society pulls the trigger. Individuals take the blame.

CONCLUSION:

🌍 Maybe Sonam is guilty in law. But the culture that made her possible is guilty in truth.

🌍 And that’s who should be on trial.
