Explanation

The sentence is grammatically correct as written. 'After finding traces of poison in his dinner yesterday' is a valid introductory phrase using the present participle 'finding'. The main clause 'Mohit accused his wife of trying to cause harm' follows correct structure with the verb 'accused' taking the preposition 'of', which is then followed by the gerund 'trying'. There are no errors in subject-verb agreement, preposition usage, or sentence structure.
