Actor Rhea Chakraborty, who walked out last week after spending a month in Byculla jail in connection with the drug probe in Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case, has written to the Central Bureau of Investigation, which is also probing the case of actor’s untimely death, to take action against her neighbour for giving misleading statement. The neighbour had claimed that Sushant had gone to drop Chakraborty at her home on June 13. Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead at his Mumbai flat on June 14, which the cops had ruled as death by suicide. According to a NDTV report, in her letter to the CBI, the Jalebi actress said, conduct makes a prima facie case punishable... with imprisonment for a minimum of seven years," she said in her letter, adding that a recording of the "false and bogus stories" carried by certain news channels was being forwarded.
The CBI questioned Thawani on Sunday, October 11, 2020, regarding the same and asked for further details. But what she said is sure to shock everyone. She has reportedly said that she never saw Rhea and Sushant together and that it was someone else who saw the same. When being asked if she could identify the person, Thawani replied in the negative. However, she did mention that the person is not coming forward because s/he is not comfortable. Dimple Thawani also failed to answer about the time or location at which the person saw Sushant Singh Rajput with Rhea Chakraborty. The CBI has reportedly warned her after the same and asked her not to speak anything that is not true or authenticated. Meanwhile, Rhea’s lawyer, Satish Maneshinde has already termed the June 13 meeting as a baseless rumour spread by a fan who is allegedly a part of the media circus. In a separate statement, he has also requested the honest journalists to go and record the statements of the woman who was questioned by CBI.
