Rhea Chakraborty says that she has no objection on a CBI probe in SSR’s case

Sushant Singh Rajput’s case comes up with new twists and turns each passing day. CBI is investigating the matter now and Rhea Chakraborty along with her family are being inquired thoroughly. It was yesterday that she told the Supreme Court that they could go for a CBI probe in the mysterious death case of SSR and she has no objection on that. She said“no objection if the Supreme Court refers the matter to CBI by its order.” However she also stated that even if the SC refers the case to CBI, then the jurisdiction would be that of Mumbai court and not of Patna court.

The Jalebi actress also said that the Bihar Government is politicizing the case because this incident took place during the time of Assembly elections and since the Bihar CM have shown interest in the case, it was therefore registered in Bihar purposely. “The issue of suicide of Rajput has been isolated and blown out of proportion. Actors Ashutosh Bhakre (32) and Sameer Sharma (44) were also reported to have committed suicide in last 30 days and yet not a whisper about these incidents (were heard in the same in power corridors). Incase of death of Rajput, CM of Bihar is reported to be responsible for registration of FIR in Patna” she told the media.

She said that ever since the case has been transferred to CBI, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has also become too active an has started to question her for hours. She said, “Investigation into financial scams of thousands of crores (of rupees) by ED & CBI never see the light of the day and at the drop of a hat, cases get registered even without there being a jurisdiction in the foundational case. Since the cause of action (Rajput’s suicide) occurred in Mumbai, Bihar police had no jurisdition over the incident. Thus, the consent of Bihar under Section 6 of Delhi Special Police Establishment (DSPE) Act is bad in law. Said consent is merely to render her transfer petition infructuous. Since the foundation for commencing the CBI probe was illegal, the inquiry initiated by ED too would fall foul of law.” Rhea also blamed the media for violating her right to privacy, “The issue is blown out of proportion in the media. Media channels are examining and cross-examining all the witnesses in the case. Petitioner is already convicted by the media even before a foul-play in the death of Rajput is established. Extreme trauma and infringement of privacy of the rights of the petitioner is caused due to constant sensationalization of this case.“
