She denied her sister’s involvement in the case, claiming that Rashmi barely knew Sharma and had hardly spoken to him.“My sister has nothing to do with this case. She did not even know Shiva that well. She never spoke to him…My sister and I, we went for a walk that evening. Shiva’s friends joined us – one of them was Ashwini Mishra and other named Harsh. We all went for a long drive. I spoke to Shiva, his mother, brother-in-law, and sister too that day,” she said.Recounting the day Sharma died, Dubey claimed that he appeared depressed on October 9. She said they woke up and made tea before he went to the washroom.“I don’t even know what it was. We woke up, made tea. Shiva went to the washroom. Usually, he would never close the main gate. But this time, he did. I asked my sister to go check up on him after a while. As soon as she opened the gate, he jumped from the balcony,” she said.Dubey alleged that Sharma’s mother accused them of murder and assaulted her driver when she arrived at the hospital.“It will be recorded on the hospital’s camera. Without knowing anything, she accused us of murder. Without thinking, she blamed us for murder. She blamed us so badly that we might not be able to get out of that blame for life,” she said.The 1st videoEarlier, Dubey had released another video denying any wrongdoing and claiming that Sharma’s death was a case of suicide, not murder.
