Two of the three men who helped Sonam Raghuvanshi murder her husband Raja Raghuvanshi in Meghalaya last month have retracted their earlier "confessions" and refused to testify against themselves before the magistrate, police said.

Herbert Pyniaid Kharkongor, who is the Shillong City Superintendent of Police and is heading the Special Investigation Team (SIT) that is probing the murder, said Akash Rajput and Anand Kurmi remained silent and refused to make any statements when they were produced before the magistrate on Thursday.
