Sushant Singh Rajput, 34, was found dead in his Mumbai apartment on June 14.

New Delhi:

Days after the lawyer representing Sushant Singh Rajput’s family claimed the actor had been strangled and accused the CBI of “delaying” what it believed should be a murder investigation, the investigating agency has said “no no aspect has been ruled out. “

“The Central Bureau of Investigation is conducting a professional investigation related to the death of Sushant Singh Rajput in which all aspects are being analyzed and no aspect has been ruled out to date. The investigation continues,” the agency said in its statement. . Monday.

Last week Sushant Singh Rajput’s family lawyer Vikas Singh tweeted: “Frustrated by the delay in which CBI made the decision to turn complicity into suicide into Murder of SSR. The doctor who is part of the AIIMS team He had told me a long time ago that the photos sent by me indicated 200% that it is death by strangulation and not suicide. (Sic) “

The lawyer had claimed that an AIIMS doctor on the panel investigating Sushant Singh Rajput’s autopsy report had shared these findings with him.

Singh also alleged that the pace of the CBI investigation had “suddenly slowed down” and that all attention had been diverted to a drug-related investigation with the Bureau of Narcotics Control (NCB) holding a “fashion show.” of Bollywood stars.

Sudhir Gupta, the head of the AIIMS forensic team, had denied his claim. “No findings have been delivered to CBI yet … the final meeting needs to be scheduled. A conclusive opinion cannot be made just by looking at images. Our opinion will be clear and conclusive based on the evidence,” said Dr. Gupta.

Attorney Satish Maneshinde, representing Sushant Singh Rajput’s arrested girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, had urged the IWC to create a new medical board “to keep investigations impartial and free from inferences”.

Rhea Chakraborty has been in jail since September 9; She was arrested by the Bureau of Narcotics Control on charges of organizing drugs for the 34-year-old Bollywood star, who was found dead in her Mumbai apartment on June 14.

Sushant Singh Rajput’s family has accused Rhea Chakraborty of taking money from him, medicating him and participating in his death.

Sushant Rajput’s death, which shocked thousands of his fans and inspired conspiracy theories and social media campaigns, was initially investigated as a suicide. The investigations took several twists and turns after agencies such as the CBI, the Directorate of Enforcement and the Office of Narcotics Control intervened.

Rhea Chakraborty’s lawyer alleges that the agencies are being pressured to achieve a “predetermined” result due to the elections in Bihar, where the death of Sushant Singh Rajput has been dragged into the campaign.

“The disclosure of a 200% conclusion by an AIIMS physician in the team headed by Dr. Gupta on the basis of photographs is a dangerous trend. To keep investigations impartial and free from inferences, the IWC must constitute a new medical board “. Mr Maneshinde said.
