Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead on June 14 in his Mumbai apartment.
New Delhi:
There was no “poisoning” involved in the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, a team of doctors from AIIMS Delhi has reportedly said in their report to the CBI. The poisoning was a theory raised by the actor’s family and others who have been contesting the Mumbai police assessment that the popular star died by suicide.
The 34-year-old movie star was found dead on June 14 in his Mumbai apartment. Although the Mumbai police, based on the autopsy, called it a suicide, the wild speculation and justice campaigns on social media and the allegations by Sushant Singh Rajput’s family raised doubts that became part of a general investigation of CBI.
Sources say the AIIMS report on Sushant Singh Rajput’s autopsy is “conclusive” and is being corroborated with the CBI investigation.
The CBI is likely, sources say, to continue its investigation into “complicity in suicide,” the charge that was originally listed by the Mumbai police.
Sources also say that the AIIMS Panel has raised some lapses on the part of the Mumbai hospital that performed the autopsy.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s family and some friends had raised questions about how he died.
The CBI investigation began after the family filed a case accusing the actor’s girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, of mentally harassing him, medicating him, exploiting him for money and playing a role in his death.
Last Friday, the family’s lawyer, Vikas Singh, claimed that a doctor from the AIIMS panel had told him that Sushant Singh had been strangled.
“Frustrated by the delay in which CBI made the decision to turn the complicity in suicide into Murder of SSR. The Doctor who is part of the AIIMS team had told me a long time ago that the photos sent by me indicated 200% that it was death for strangulation and not suicide, “he had tweeted.
Following the complaint, Rhea Chakraborty’s lawyer had called for a new medical board “to keep investigations impartial and free from inferences.”
In a statement on Monday, the CBI said it was conducting a “professional investigation” where “all aspects are being analyzed and no aspects have been ruled out.”
