Rhea Chakraborty has petitioned the Supreme Court to transfer the case against her in Patna filed by Sushant’s family members to Mumbai.
Mumbai| Actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty has requested the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to defer her inquiry today. She has requested that she shouldn’t be questioned by ED until her petition is heard in the Supreme Court. Rhea is accused of getting 15 crore invested in her company from Sushant’s account.
Rhea Chakraborty has petitioned the Supreme Court to transfer the case against her in Patna filed by Sushant’s family members to Mumbai. On the other hand, the Bihar government has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court. It states that Rhea Chakraborty’s petition is wrong and should not be considered.
SP Vinay Tiwari may come to Patna today
On the other hand, Patna SP Vinay Tiwari, who went to Mumbai to probe the Sushant Singh Rajput Suicide Case, has been freed from Quarantine by BMC. He can leave for Patna today. He was quarantined by the BMC at a guest house in Jogeshwari on Sunday. A quarantine seal was also stamped on his hand.
During his release, BMC told him that the Bihar Police could interrogate people following the lockdown rules. However, this is not likely now, as the case has been taken over by CBI.
IG of Patna wrote a letter to BMC Commissioner
Earlier, the IG of Patna wrote a letter to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal on 3 August requesting relaxation in the lockdown rule and asked SP Vinay Tiwari to leave. The BMC had issued a letter rejecting this demand. After which the DGP of Bihar questioned the ways in which the BMC worked.
Earlier, the letter issued by BMC said that Mumbai is badly affected in the era of Coronavirus epidemic. The BMC had suggested that the Bihar Police may use Zoom, Google Meet, Geo Meet, Microsoft Teams or other digital platforms to interrogate people.
BMC had earlier said that if Patna SP Vinay Tiwari had to leave Mumbai before the quarantine was completed, he would have to undergo a corona test. Only if he is found negative, will he be allowed to go. In response to this, Bihar Police had approached the apex court.
The matter was also commented on by the Supreme Court during the hearing of Rhea’s plea. It is believed that under this pressure BMC has decided to free SP Vinay Tiwari.
CBI has also filed a case
Meanwhile, on Thursday, the CBI has registered a case against 6 accused and others in the Sushant case. These include Rhea Chakraborty, her father Indrajit Chakraborty, brother Showmik Chakraborty, mother Sandhya Chakraborty, her business manager Samuel Miranda, personal manager Shruti Modi and others.
