The legal proceedings related to the murder case of Ketan Agarwal see a new development as advocate Ashotush Srivastava, who represents accused Siya Goyal, issues a ₹10 crore defamation notice to Siya’s brother, Sahil Goyal. Both reports describe the notice as a response to public remarks attributed to Sahil Goyal that state Srivastava’s team was “never hired by Goyals.”

According to the lawyer’s submission, the statement is presented as misleading and connected to the courtroom dispute around the representation and related claims made during the case’s ongoing trial process. The notice is framed as a demand for clarification and redress, and it adds to the “courtroom drama” surrounding the trial, with attention shifting from the underlying criminal allegations to competing statements among parties and their representatives.

The reports do not indicate any court ruling yet on the defamation notice, and they characterize the matter as part of the wider legal battle unfolding alongside the Ketan Agarwal trial.
