Former manager of Sushant Singh Rajput, Disha Salian’s family moves Bombay High Court with plea for fresh probe against Aaditya Thackeray

The family of Disha Salian, who was the former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, has moved court, seeking a fresh investigation into the mysterious circumstances under which she was found dead in June 2020. As per news agency PTI, Disha’s father, Satish Salian, has said that he has approached the Bombay High Court.

The petition by Satish urged the court to order registration of FIR against Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray and transfer the investigation to CBI. His lawyer, Nilesh Ojha, said that they are currently in process of filing the petition and would get it numbered at the HC registry department on Thursday.

The plea had alleged that Disha was brutally raped and murdered, and subsequetly, there was a politically orchestrated cover up to protect certain influential people. It has also been claimed by the petitioner that the probe conducted by the city police was genuine, but now has learnt that it was a cover-up.

“The Mumbai police hastily closed the death as a case of suicide or accidental death without taking into account forensic evidence, circumstantial proof and eyewitness testimonies,” the plea said.
