Sushant case: CBI carrying out intensive probe, using advanced forensic methods

 

 

 

THE CBI on Wednesday told BJP Rajya Sabha member Subramanian Swamy that it is carrying out an intensive and thorough probe into the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The CBI is also using advanced mobile forensic equipment for analysis of dump data of the relevant cell tower locations related to the case, it said. In a detailed reply to Swamy, Superintendent of Police, CBI, Nupur Prasad, in a letter dated December 30, said: “The CBI is conducting investigation in a thorough and professional manner using latest scientific techniques. During investigation, all aspects are being looked at and no aspect has been ruled out as of date.”

 

The CBI responded to Swamy, after he wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in connection with the CBI probe in the death of the Bollywood actor, who was found dead at his Mumbai’s Bandra apartment on June 14. The CBI had registered a case on August 6 this year after a notification from the Centre on the recommendations of Bihar government.

 

The case was based on the complaint of Sushant’s father K. K. Singh to Bihar Police dated July 25. The CBI has named Sushant’s former girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, her father Indrajit Chakraborty, mother Sandhya Chakraborty, brother Showik Chakraborty, Sushant’s former house manager Samuel Miranda, his former manager Shruti Modi and others in the case. In her reply, Prasad told Swamy that the CBI team visited Mumbai on August 20, a day after the Supreme Court gave a nod for the federal agency probe.
