Dispute over divorce

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Superintendent of Police Vinaykumar Rathod said that Satyam had been pressuring Pooja to grant him a divorce as he wanted to remarry. However, Pooja had refused, as she was concerned about the future of her two young children from her first marriage.

Her first husband had passed away earlier, and she had married Satyam about six months ago. But due to growing differences, the couple had started living apart.
