They were remanded to 14-day judicial custody.Giribala claimed that Samarth had been assaulted by advocate Anurag Srivastava during proceedings in Jabalpur, reported ANI news agency. Responding to the allegation, Srivastava denied the charge and said the claim could be verified through CCTV footage installed within the court premises.As the exchange during the hearing intensified, Samarth Singh was asked to disclose where he had allegedly been hiding within the Jabalpur court complex.Giribala later objected to what she described as a "media trial" surrounding the case. "The media trial must cease. Wherever we go, the media follows us; this must be stopped. Our lives are in danger," ANI quoted Giribala Singh as telling the court.She also raised concerns over the recent crime scene recreation conducted by the CBI, alleging procedural irregularities. Giribala questioned why she had been dropped three houses away from her residence instead of directly at her doorstep and objected to footage of the exercise being circulated in the media.The CBI informed the court that while it was currently seeking judicial remand for the accused, it reserved the right to seek further police remand if required during the investigation."At this stage, we are requesting Judicial Remand (JR); however, should the need arise, we will seek Police Remand (PR)," the agency told the court.The CBI reconstructed the circumstances of Twisha Sharma's death at her marital home in Bhopal using dummies on Monday.
