The family of Ketan Agarwal, a Pune-based realtor, is pleading for a fast-track trial after his tragic death at Lohagad Fort. Ketan’s father, Vishal Agarwal, expressed profound heartbreak, noting that if his son’s fiancée, Siya Goyal, had simply been honest about her lack of interest in the marriage, the union would have been called off immediately. Instead, authorities allege that Siya and her accomplice, Chetan Chaudhary, plotted to murder the 20-year-old on June 18—a day before Siya's birthday—by pushing him from the fort’s steep edge.

Investigations revealed a calculated betrayal, with police uncovering over 2,000 phone calls between Siya and Chetan over the last six months, suggesting the murder was motivated by their secret relationship. Senior police officials confirmed that the duo confessed to the crime, admitting that Siya viewed Ketan as an obstacle to her life with Chetan. For the grieving family, this revelation is particularly agonizing, as they shared a 35-year friendship with Siya’s family and were planning an elaborate wedding for the couple this November. Following the court's decision to remand the accused in police custody, the family now seeks swift justice for a life cut short in such a cold-blooded manner.
