26:47Now PlayingIn 2019, 27-year-old Sonam Kshatriya was found hanging in the closet of her Manhattan apartment. The medical examiner ruled it a suicide but the evidence tells a much darker story. Her family says this case is a chilling echo of the Ellen Greenberg case, where a young woman was found with 20 stab wounds and still declared a suicide. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield exposes the shocking details of Sonam’s death, from the blood at the crime scene that did not match the official story, to the ex-boyfriend with seven prior arrests who discovered her body. With bruises, surveillance video, and a 911 call that raises more questions than answers, Sonam’s family is fighting to prove she did not take her own life. Could this be Ellen Greenberg 2.0? A 27-year-old woman found dead in her closet, ruled a suicide despite red-flag evidence. This is the story the medical examiner does not want to revisit but one her family refuses to let go.
