A Wife's Cry for Justice

Her Indian Husband was Found Dead Under Mysterious Circumstance in His Hotel Room in India

Anthia Mishra visited India way back in 1989 in search of spiritual quest but little she knew that she was destined to meet her future Husband Parmanand Mishra. It was love at first sight when they met at Satyananda Yoga Ashram in Bihar and was further cemented into a nuptial knot. Marriage blessed them with three lovely children and they led a happy family life in Australia.

In 2005 Parmanand Mishra travelled to India to see his old father. His flight landed in Delhi on 25^th February and fatigued from a long haul he decided to stay overnight in Amar Hotel Paharganj. The next day morning he was found dead under mysterious circumstance in his hotel room. Anthia Mishra's fairy tale of blissful marital life took a nightmarish turn. Since then she has been running from pillar to post in search of truth and justice.

In a candid interview I had with her on the net she recounts her ordeal of anguish and pain.

When did you first meet Parmanand Mishra and how it culminated in marriage?

I met my husband Parmanand Mishra in the Satyananda Yoga Ashram in Munger Bihar in 1989. We fell in love at first sight. In fact it is a very beautiful love story. I asked Parmanand if he would like to visit Australia and he agreed. We married in 1989.

Tell us something about your Husband and his family?

My husband's family is very genuine, honest and sharing. They work hard in their business or on the farm in the village. We are very close. They accepted our marriage fully from the moment we met. All our experiences with Parmanand's family have been positive ones. They made me feel proud of my marriage to Parmanand and proud of his culture and Indian heritage. They are always in our thoughts and in our hearts every day and I admire them very much.

What was the purpose of his visit to Delhi and why didn't his family accompany him?
