"Stand Vindicated", Mumbai Police Behaviour Illegal": Bihar On Supreme Court In Sushant Singh Rajput Case

New Delhi: Moments after the Supreme Court has allowed the CBI to investigate the case into the death of MS Dhoni actor Sushant Singh Rajput, filed by his family in Bihar, tweeted the state's Deputy CM Sushil Kumar Modi that their stand has "vindicated".

Demise actor's family had filed a police complaint in Patna against Rhea Chakraborty, alleging that she cheated him financially and her action drove Mr. Rajput to suicide.

Later Ms. Chakraborty has asked the Top Court to allow the case to be transferred to Mumbai. The Bihar Police, backed by the state government opposed Ms. Chakraborty's plea and recommended the CBI to take over the case

"I am very happy. The Supreme Court's order has strengthened the trust people have in the court and has assured the nation that justice will be delivered in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case," Bihar Director General of Police Gupteshwar Pandey said.

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav tweeted in Hindi, "First of all in the Sushant case, we demanded a CBI inquiry… I hope justice will be achieved within a stipulated time frame."

सबसे पहले सुशांत केस में हमने सड़क से लेकर सदन तक सीबीआई जाँच की माँग की थी और उसी का परिणाम था कि 40 दिनों से सोई बिहार सरकार को कुंभकर्णी नींद से जागना पड़ा था।

आशा है एक तय समय सीमा के अंदर न्याय मिलेगा।
