The newlywed’s rented scooter was found at Sohrarim, several kilometres from the parking lot at Mawlakhiat with the keys latched to it.Meanwhile, even as Sonam is yet to be traced, his brother Govind, who is camping in Shillong, accused the state government of not doing enough and searching for her “like she is dead”.”We strongly believe Sonam is alive. They are searching for her like she is dead,” Govind said, urging authorities to take help from the CBI or any other agencies.Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma has assured that the government was leaving “no stone unturned” to find the missing woman. However, the terrain, extremely heavy rainfall and foggy weather conditions that reduce visibility to only a few feet were affecting the search operation.”We are trying our best, our boys are doing what they can without rest using gadgets and trained dogs. The search will continue,” East Khasi Hills district Superintendent of Police Vivek Syiem said.Raja’s decomposed body was found in a gorge near Weisawdong falls on June 2.A gold ring and a neck chain were found missing from his body, further leading to suspicion that he was murdered.A day later, a bloodstained machete was discovered nearby and two days later, a raincoat that was similar to the one used by the couple was found in Mawkma village, half-way between Sohrarim and the gorge where Raja’s body was found.
