Muskan Rastogi, accused in the high-profile murder case of a businessman in Meerut, has formally requested the appointment of a government lawyer to represent her in court, citing both financial difficulties and the emotional strain following a public rift with her family. The case has garnered widespread attention, with many shocked by Muskan’s involvement in the crime.
Her family, once close-knit and supportive, has distanced itself from her, openly condemning the crime and expressing their refusal to offer any assistance during the trial. This rejection has left Muskan in a vulnerable position, and she now seeks legal aid to navigate the complicated legal landscape.
The request for a government lawyer has triggered discussions about the challenges faced by individuals accused of serious crimes, especially those from financially disadvantaged backgrounds. Muskan’s case has become a symbol of the difficulties in securing proper legal representation in high-profile criminal cases and the toll it takes on families involved in such tragedies.
