The Ketan Agarwal murder case has taken a new legal turn after an advocate representing accused Siya Goyal issued a ₹10 crore defamation notice to her brother, alleging that his public remarks damaged the lawyer's professional reputation.
The notice follows statements made by Siya Goyal's brother, who questioned whether the advocate had been officially appointed to represent her. He also claimed that the family had chosen another lawyer to handle the case and raised concerns over the legal documents filed in court.
In response, the advocate maintained that Siya Goyal, being an adult, had independently signed the necessary legal documents authorising him to appear on her behalf. He asserted that his appointment was valid and that his legal team had acted in accordance with the law.
The disagreement reportedly surfaced during recent court proceedings, where confusion emerged over Siya Goyal's legal representation. The issue has now escalated into a separate legal dispute, adding another layer to the already high-profile murder investigation.
Meanwhile, the investigation into the murder of businessman Ketan Agarwal continues. The accused remain under judicial process as investigators pursue evidence in the case
. The latest development shifts part of the spotlight from the murder probe to a courtroom battle over legal representation and alleged defamation, with further proceedings expected in the coming days.
