Sushant Singh Rajput Case: CBI Team to Hold Meeting with AIIMS Forensic Team
NCB calls off questioning of Shruti Modi after one member of SIT tests positive for Covid-19. SHRC gives clean chit to Cooper hospital and Mumbai Police over Rhea's visit to mortuary.
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which went to Mumbai to probe the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, has returned to Delhi and will hold a meeting next week with the AIIMS forensic team, sources said on Thursday.
Meanwhile, the Delhi High Court has responded to actress Rakul Preet’s plea, after her name had cropped up in the drug case linked to Sushant’s death. Rakul has highlighted media reports against her after Rhea Chakraborty named her in the drug related case before the Narcotics Control Bureau. The single judge bench said, “There has to be some restraint. Media gets to know info even before the officers themselves. Reputations are getting tarnished.”
In the ongoing probe into the death of the actor, the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) on Wednesday said that there was “no breach” on the part of Dr RN Cooper hospital and the Mumbai police in allowing Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakrabarty inside the mortuary of the hospital. The SHRC said that based on the details of the waiting area, all the protocols were duly followed. The matter, therefore, has been disposed off.

The actress told Times Now that she was only fighting for herself and in the process, ‘cleaning the path for many’. She said that she has been subjected to harassment, molestation and a ‘drug racket’ in the industry.
