More trouble for Siya Goyal’s family, food safety watchdog halts business

Trouble has mounted for the family of 20-year-old Siya Goyal, who is accused of murdering her 25-year-old fiance, Ketan Agarwal. Following an inspection, the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has asked Siya’s family-owned grocery business to halt operations for allegedly violating norms of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India.
