New Delhi: BJP leader and ex-Bigg Boss star Sonali Phogat's death mystery intensified ever since her family cried foul. Earlier, it was suspected that the TikToker died of a heart attack in Goa where she went with her staff members. However, her brother Rinku Dhaka made explosive allegations her two of her associates and the case took a new leaf. 

SONALI PHOGAT WAS DRUGGED AND...

Today, Goa Inspector General Omvir Singh Bishnoi while addressing the media, said, "It was seen that one suspect gave her some substance forcefully. She was given some obnoxious chemical and after that, she was not in control. At 4:30 am when she was not in control, the suspect took her in the toilet and there is no explanation of what they did for two hours. The duo are arrested. The FSL team will take them to various places. The duo will be produced in court soon. Seems to be that she died in the influence of this drug."
