Shraddha Dubey Breaks Silence on Shiva Sharma Death Case, Denies Murder Claims

Model and social media influencer Shraddha Dubey has publicly addressed the ongoing investigation into the death of businessman Shiva Sharma. In a video released on social media, Dubey asserted that Sharma died by suicide, directly challenging allegations that he had been murdered. Her statement comes amid an active police investigation into the fatal fall of the businessman, who died after falling from the fourth floor of the Awadh Green Apartment in the Hazratganj area of Lucknow on October 9.During the video address, Dubey sought to dispel reports suggesting she had disappeared. She stated that she is not missing and expressed a willingness to present herself to the police to provide a formal statement. She said she wants to convey the full truth regarding the events that led to the incident. Dubey also addressed widespread public speculation regarding her personal life, specifically objecting to what she characterized as unverified allegations and rumors concerning her purported associations with politicians and various government officials. She emphasized that maintaining a social media connection with individuals does not imply the existence of a personal or professional relationship.The death of Shiva Sharma has become a subject of intense scrutiny following a complaint filed by his mother, Ranjana Sharma. The family has alleged that their son suffered months of harassment, physical violence, threats, and blackmail. The police have registered a murder case naming Dubey, her sister, Rashmi Dubey, their driver, and an associate identified as Adil. Authorities have reportedly launched a search operation, including a cash reward of 25,000 rupees for information that could lead to the arrest of the accused.Investigations into the incident are currently ongoing as law enforcement officials review various forms of evidence. Investigators are examining CCTV footage from the apartment complex and tracking potential escape routes that might lead toward Delhi or the Nepal border. Additionally, police are reviewing digital communications, including WhatsApp messages, to reconstruct the sequence of events leading up to the fatal fall. The family has specifically raised concerns regarding the circumstances of Sharma’s hospitalization and has maintained that he was assaulted prior to the incident.Dubey, who is known for her work in modelling and fashion events, currently maintains a following of approximately 1.41 lakh on social media. While she has called for an end to the rumors surrounding her life, officials have clarified that her public statement does not influence the trajectory of the legal proceedings. The police investigation into the murder charges remains active, and authorities continue to treat the case as a priority as they attempt to reconcile the conflicting accounts provided by the family and the accused.As the legal process moves forward, the focus remains on gathering forensic and digital evidence to determine the exact nature of the tragedy. For now, the claims made by both sides—the family's allegations of systematic abuse and Dubey's assertion of suicide—form the central pillars of an investigation that has drawn significant attention in Lucknow and across social media platforms. The police have yet to conclude their findings or verify the claims made in the influencer's recent statement.
