The Supreme Court of India directed CBI to investigate Sushant Singh Rajput’s death today. The verdict was celebrated by millions as they were fighting hard for the case to be handed over to CBI. While the entire nation has happily welcomed the SC’s decision, and Rhea Chakraborty and her lawyer Satish Maneshinde have reacted to the same in a strange manner.
A statement by Rhea Chakraborty was issued by Satish Maneshinde in which he reminded that Rhea also called for CBI investigation.
The statement reads, “The Hon’ble Supreme Court after examining the facts and circumstances of the case and the report of the Mumbai police has observed that it will be the desired justice as Rhea herself called for a CBI investigation. The Hon’ble Supreme Court also observed that due to the allegations made by the two states of political interference against each other, it would be in the interest of justice to hand over the case to the CBI.” Also Read: Highlights of Supreme Court’s decision on CBI inquiry for Sushant Singh Rajput
“Since the Court has transferred the investigation to CBI invoking its powers under Article 142 of the Constitution of India, she will appear and face the investigation by the CBI as she has done earlier with the Mumbai Police and the Enforcement Directorate. Rhea maintains that the Truth will remain the same whichever agency investigates the case”, the statement reads.
“No Interviews, please. The matter is still under investigation by CBI”, the lawyer appealed.
