In 2008, journalist Soumya Viswanathan was found dead in her car on Nelson Mandela Road, Delhi. The initial ruling was an accident, but the truth was far darker. Her murder would remain a terrifying 15-year cold case, leaving the city paralyzed by fear and suspicion.

On this episode of The Brand and Tonic Show (द धुंधरे), we peel back the layers of this complicated investigation, linking Soumya's unsolved murder to the later, equally brutal killings of cab driver Mohammad Nadeem and BPO executive Jigisha Ghosh.

The breakthrough wasn't a confession, but an ATM transaction. Learn how a sliver of digital evidence finally exposed the murderous gang led by Ravi Kapoor and Baljeet Malik. The most shocking revelation? The motive for Soumya's death was not robbery, but pure, murderous ego after she dared to overtake their car.

Listen as we trace the timeline, expose the investigative failures, the public outcry over a controversial comment by the CM, the application of the tough MCOCA Act, and the emotional 15-year wait for justice that ended with a final, devastating verdict.

It's a gripping story of systemic failure, relentless pursuit, and the ultimate price paid for a single, fatal moment of rage.
