"The daughter who was in our house, our daughter-in-law, whom we treated with great respect. We tried till the very last moment to save her life and keep her with us. But the way things are being misconstrued is completely wrong," she said.
She added that CCTV footage from the house could help establish the sequence of events.
"It is a good thing that there are CCTV cameras in the house. Until we saw it ourselves, we had no access to that area because it was on the terrace," she said.
Responding to allegations surrounding Twisha’s pregnancy and claims made in chats allegedly recovered during the investigation, Singh questioned the authenticity and interpretation of the messages.
'They Just Want My Son Behind Bars': Twisha Sharma's Mother-In-Law Alleges Vendetta"After marriage, a baby is the result of a relationship between a husband and wife, isn’t it? So how can it be otherwise? If something like this is being written in chat, then if someone wants to terminate a pregnancy, both sides should be consulted," she said.
"She said in the hospital in front of me that she had consumed a lot of marijuana, and that is why she did not want to keep the child. Here, she is telling her parents something different in chat. If allegations are being made against Samarth, then how can her statements be considered true?" Singh asked.
The retired judge also made controversial remarks about Twisha's lifestyle and behaviour after marriage.
"She didn’t say it exactly like that, but what she said was, 'I am not the person you think I am'. We thought that if a traditional, well-mannered girl comes, it would be good for the house, the puja and rituals would be properly observed. But she would eat anytime and wouldn’t even bother to pick up her plate after eating," Singh alleged.

Raising questions over a car key recovered during the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe, Singh said a Volkswagen car key found in Twisha's backpack had deepened the family's suspicions.
"When the SIT team came in front of me and was checking her backpack, there was a key inside it which has not been seized by us. We want it to be investigated. There is no Volkswagen car at our place, and our daughter-in-law also didn't know how to drive a car. Even at her parental home, there is no Volkswagen car," she said.
She also claimed that there had been no interaction between the family and Twisha during a crucial period before the incident.

If there was no contact with us, and her mother knew that she was crying, then the mother should explain what exactly happened, right?" Singh said.
She further demanded scrutiny of Twisha’s call records and financial transactions.
"That is why we want her call details and we also want to know where the money that was transferred to her was spent. Now, everything has come under suspicion," she said.
The Twisha Sharma death case has triggered widespread public attention, with the SIT continuing its investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death.
