Rhea Chakraborty was arrested on September 8 by the Office of Narcotics Control. (PROCEEDINGS)
Calcutta:
A day after a panel of doctors at AIIMS in Delhi ruled out murder as the cause of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, the leader of Congress in Lok Sabha, Adhir Choudhury, demanded on Sunday that the actor’s girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, be released immediately without further harassment.
Choudhury, who had said in the past that Chakraborty was “falsely implicated” after her arrest in connection with a drug investigation linked to the Rajput’s death, claimed on Twitter that she was the victim of a “political conspiracy”.
“Now the BJP propaganda machine can indict the AIIMS forensic team that overturned the accusation that Rhea Chakroborty conspired to kill Sushsnt Singh Rajput, the head of state Congress tweeted.
“We are all hurt by the expiration of Sushant ji, but he cannot be honored for falsely implicating a lady as a defendant. Earlier I said that Rhea Chakroborty was an innocent lady, she should be released without further harassment towards her, she has been a victim of the political conspiracy (sic) ”, he added.
In their conclusive medico-legal opinion to the CBI, a six-member team of forensic doctors has dismissed the theories of “poisoning and strangulation” in the Rajput death.
Ms. Chakraborty was arrested on September 8 by the Office of Narcotics Control.
