The couple, accompanied by Sai's brother-in-law Vishnu Vardhan and four friends, had planned a celebratory trip to Goa. The group arrived at platform No. 9 around 9.30 am, with reservations in coach S4. According to Secunderabad Railway Police, Sai was seen boarding and deboarding the train multiple times before the incident. Around 10.30 am, he stepped off to buy a bottle of water.

'Train-murder case': ‘Killer' set free from jail as victim returns home in UP
BAREILLY: Undertrial Narendra Kumar Dubey, 43, lodged in prison for two-and-a-half years for allegedly 'killing another man by throwing him from a running train' was released by a court here Wednesday, as the 'victim' was found alive in Gujarat, reports Kanwardeep Singh . Additional district and sessions judge Pankaj Kumar Srivastava said in the order that the person thrown off the train by Dubey was someone else. If the family of that person comes forward and wishes to file a case against Dubey, the case proceedings will go on. In Dec 2022, passengers on Delhi-bound 14205Ayodhya Cantt-Old Delhi Express threw one Mohd Ahtab, 26, off the train after suspecting him to be a mobile phone thief on a stretch between Shahjahanpur and Bareilly stations. When the train stopped in Bareilly, Dubey, from Ayodhya, was arrested by GRP and sent to jail under IPC section 302 (murder), based on videos and testimonies by passengers. Later, a body was found in Shahjahanpur, and through social media, a man from Bihar's Muzaffarpur, Mohammad Yaqub, identified it as that of his son Ahtab. The family then conducted the last rites in Shahjahanpur. A year after the incident, Ahtab returned home from Gujarat but didn't inform Shahjahanpur police. Villagers in Muzaffarpur made videos of Ahtab and sent them to police and he was brought to UP. He stated in court that he was not on the train that day as he was working in Gujarat in the tailoring and embroidery industry. The court then ordered the release of Dubey, declaring him innocent. Ahtab's father Mohammad Yaqub told the court the body shown to him looked like that of his son, and other members of the family also felt the same way. The brutal murder of the incident was posted on social media and shared widely online. In a 66-second video — purportedly shot by a passenger — several people could be seen laughing and assaulting the man. One of the passengers, identified as Narendra Kumar Dubey, could be seen abusing and pushing him out of the general compartment even as the man was begging for his life.
