Bihar court, on Wednesday, dismissed a petition seeking registration of cases against Bollywood bigwigs like Salman Khan, Ekta Kapoor, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Karan Johar for allegedly abetting actor Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide. Chief Judicial Magistrate of Muzaffarpur, Mukesh Kumar, dismissed the petition filed by local advocate Sudhir Kumar Ojha, pointing out that the matter lay outside the court's jurisdiction.
Sudhir Kumar OJha who filed the petition is unfazed by the decision of the court and said that he will challenge the decision. “I will challenge the CJMs decision before the district court. Bihar is in pain over the death of Sushant Singh Rajput. We must act to bring those, who drove a jovial young man like him to take such an extreme step, to justice,” he told the media. The Mumbai Police is currently investigating his death and have recorded the statements of 34 people associated with the actor so far. Sanjay Leela Bhansali was the latest celebrity to be questioned in connection with the actor's death.
