The father of the accused also made an appeal to Home Minister, Amit Shah to initiate a CBI probe into the murder case. Devi was quoted as saying:

"My daughter is innocent. I have trust in my daughter. She cannot do this. They got married with the consent of both families. The state (Meghalaya) Government has been lying from the beginning. My daughter reached Ghazipur on her own. She was not arrested in Meghalaya. Meghalaya Police is making up stories. Let the CBI inquiry begin, all officers at the police station (in Meghalaya) will be behind bars. Sonam called her brother, Govind, who informed me that Sonam has been found at a dhaba in Ghazipur."
