The long going investigation of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case took a shocking turn after the late actor’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against actress Rhea Chakraborty. In the complaint, KK Singh accused Rhea and her family of cheating, exploiting and abetting on Sushant’s suicide. After the FIR had been filed, Rhea met with her lawyers and according to the reports, she knocked the doors of Supreme Court to shift the case from Bihar to Mumbai. It was then reported that Rhea was missing from her home and the Bihar police were on a lookout for her.
However, a Patna police personnel clarified the rumour in a conversation with Mid-Day. Vinay Tiwari, Central Patna SP said, “Aisa kuch nahin hai. At this point, we are not even trying to trace Miss Chakraborty. Preliminary enquiry is underway. There are certain basic facts that are being investigated, following which we will decide on the course of action. As, when and if she is required, we will get in touch with her”.
Tiwari also clarified to the publication that the investigation carried out by Bihar Police had no involvement of the Mumbai Police and was independent. Rhea Chakraborty has been booked under sections 341 (punishment for wrongful restraint), 342 (punishment for wrongful confinement), 380 (theft in dwelling house), 406 (punishment for criminal breach of trust), 420 (Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property) and 306 (abetment of suicide).
Via ANI, Sushant’s family lawyer explained the reason as to why Sushant’s father took 44 days to file the FIR. “FIR registered now as family was in shock & Mumbai Police wasn’t registering FIR, but forcing them to give names of big production houses & get them involved. It was heading in a different direction”, he said.
