• Officers are verifying undated CCTV said to show husband Vipin Bhati near a shop around the incident time and are cross‑checking timestamps against videos shared by the victim’s sister.
• A private‑hospital memo recorded severe burns from a household gas‑cylinder explosion, which police say is being examined alongside the FIR that alleges deliberate burning.
