Pune: As developments emerge amid investigation into the Ketan Agarwal murder case, the police have learnt that the victim's phone remained with his fiancee and prime accused Siya Goyal for some time before she handed it over to Ketan's family. 

While the Pune Police have confirmed that Ketan's phone was with Siya for some time after his murder, it remains unclear if anything was done with the phone. 

There are no details on whether Siya and her co-accused, Chetan Chaudhary, tampered with the data.

Meanwhile, Pune Rural Police on Wednesday recreated the crime scene in the alleged murder of Ketan Agarwal, at Lohagad Fort in Maharashtra as part of their ongoing investigation.

During the exercise, investigators threw a fibre dummy matching the victim's height and weight into a gorge more than 300 feet deep to reconstruct the sequence of events.

The exclusive visuals of the exercise have been accessed by IANS.

Speaking to IANS, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) (Lonavala division), Gajanan Tompe, said: "Today, we took the accused to Lohagad and carried out a crime scene reconstruction this morning. The procedure was conducted as per the actual crime scene details. The investigation is still ongoing. We will place all necessary information before the court as required and continue the investigation accordingly."

"We are recording statements of all those who are connected with the case and will continue to do so," he added.

On Tuesday, the police conducted a 'gait analysis' of the second accused, Chetan Chaudhary.

Siya Goyal and her alleged lover Chetan Babulal Chaudhary are accused of murdering her fiance and 26-year-old real estate businessman Ketan Agarwal at Lohagad Fort on June 18.

On Monday, a Maharashtra court granted the Pune Rural Police five more days of custody of Siya Goyal and Chetan Chaudhary.

The accused were produced before the Vadgaon Maval court on Monday after the expiry of their initial police remand.

Seeking an extension, investigators informed the court that several crucial aspects of the probe remain incomplete. 

Police had said they needed to recreate the crime scene with both accused present, trace Chetan's movements after the incident, examine phone conversations exchanged following the murder, and recover evidence linked to the destruction of Ketan's passport.

According to investigators, Siya had allegedly torn and burnt the passport after stealing it during a stop at a food mall while the family was travelling to Mumbai airport for a planned pre-wedding trip to Bali.
