Mumbai, Aug 6 (Reporter) Maharashtra Congress on Tuesday questioned the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) about the status of the case involving the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, and also urged the central agency to present facts related to it.
“Four years have passed. Why is the CBI silent?” asked Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee general secretary Sachin Sawant.
The CBI took over the case on August 5, 2000.
According to Sawant, the BJP has exploited the case politically.
In fact, the case snowballed into a major political issue involving the then Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi government.
"It has been 1,460 days since Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide, but the question of when the CBI will open its mouth remains unanswered,” said Sawant in what is a question for the BJP-led dispensation at the Centre and the Maha Yuti government in Maharashtra.
Sushant (34), born 21 January, 1986, who had acted in Bollywood films such as M S Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016), Kedarnath (2018) and Chhichhore (2019), was found dead on June 14, 2020 at his rented duplex flat in Mont Blanc building at Bandra in Mumbai. His body was found hanging from a ceiling fan.
