Sushant Singh Rajput’s family lawyer Vikas Singh Monday alleged that actress Rhea Chakraborty’s complaint with Mumbai Police is a ploy to derail ongoing CBI investigation and keep the role of state police alive in the matter. Rhea has filed a complaint with the Mumbai Police accusing Rajput’s sister Priyanka Singh and a Delhi-based doctor of forgery and preparing a “fake” prescription of medicines for anxiety.
Singh said Mumbai police does not have any right in this matter and this have been done to keep the jurisdiction of the Mumbai police alive. “The complaint is itself an offence. This is a ploy to derail and deflect the investigation. This is an attempt to keep Mumbai police alive in the case so that they can do some mischief and ensure that the family of Sushant does not get justice in this matter,” he told reporters.
In her complaint sent to the Bandra police here on Sunday, Chakraborty sought that Priyanka Singh and Dr Tarun Kumar, working with Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital in New Delhi, be booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code for forgery, the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and the Telemedicine Practice Guidelines Singh said that there can be no FIR in this matter and complaint is not maintainable as the Police does not have jurisdiction.
The senior advocate said the investigation in the case has been handed over to the CBI by the Supreme Court and the state police cannot see whether Telemedicine Practice Guidelines have been violated or not. Rajput, 34, was found dead at his apartment on June 14 following which the Mumbai Police had lodged an Accidental Death Report (ADR).
