Sushant Singh Rajput’s family lawyer Vikas Singh, has said that the Mumbai Police were informed in February that the actor’s life was in danger.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s family lawyer said that the Mumbai Police was told in February that Rhea Chakraborty is a threat to his life.
The legal counsel of Sushant Singh Rajput’s family has told India Today that Mumbai Police was informed by the actor’s family that he is in danger and immediate action is required. “We had told Bandra Police on February 25 that Sushant is not in a good company and please have a look at him so that no harm happens to him. And that was the time when he was in complete control of Rhea Chakraborty,” said senior advocate Vikas Singh. However, no action was taken by Mumbai Police.
In an exclusive interview to the India Today, Vikas Singh also told that even Bihar Police was not willing to file an FIR in the case and it was lodged only after intervention from Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. “When we approached Bihar Police to lodge an FIR they said high profile people are involved. I am thankful to CM Nitish Kumar that he considered our request and got minister Sanjay Jha involved in the matter. When he explained the matter to the police then an FIR was registered,” advocate Singh added.
The family lawyer of actor Sushant has also demanded immediate arrest of actress Rhea Chakraborty adding,”her custodial interrogation is necessary for truth.”
The lawyer has also alleged that Rhea had made sure that Sushant is distant from his family and she was not letting Sushant talk to his father or other family members.
Expressing his unhappiness over the Mumbai Police’s Investigation, Vikas Singh also said, “Mumbai Police was investigating the matter in different direction. They were going behind people who are not directly linked with the case. They were not trying to investigate Rhea Chakravorty and that’s why we had to approach Bihar Police to lodge an FIR.”
