Maharashtra minister Aaditya Thackeray on Tuesday said he and his family are nowhere related and being targeted for no reason in actor Sushant Singh Rajput death case.

The tourism minister said he is a grandson of Shiv Sena founder the late Bal Thackeray and will not commit anyact that will hurt the image of Maharashtra and his family.    In a statement he shared on Twitter, Aaditya Thackeray said the Maharashtra government is making all the efforts tocombat COVID-19 and perhaps those who are sulking due to the MVAs popularity have started playing the dirty politics in connection with the death case.

Mud-slinging is being indulged in against me and the Thackeray family for no reason in connection with Sushantssuicide. This is a kind of political stomach-ache stemming from frustration.

The 30-year-old son of Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said he shares cordial rapport with many people from Bollywoodand added it is no crime.

He claimed efforts are being made to divert the probe into Rajput's death, an episode being investigated separatelyby the Mumbai police and their Patna counterparts.

Those who are making baseless allegations should understand this, he said. The minister further said anyone who has special information regarding the case should submit it to the police who will definitely probe in that direction.

I am exercising restraint in this case even today. None should remain under the illusion that the government andThackeray family can be defamed by engaging in mud-slinging thus. This much for now, he added.   Rajput, 34, was found dead at his residence in Mumbai on June 14. The Mumbai Police had registeredan Accidental Death Report (ADR) and an investigation is underway.
