According to the several media reports, Mumbai police has now registered a first information report (FIR) on the basis of a complaint made by Sushant's live-in partner Rhea Chakraborty. The FIR lodged at the Bandra police station charges SSR's sisters Priyanka Singh and Mitu Singh for abetting suicide, cheating, forgery and criminal conspiracy under sections 464, 465, 466, 468, 474, 306, 120 (B), 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) along with section 8 (c), 21, 22, and 29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985.
An HT report stated that the complaint also names Dr Tarun Kumar, an associate professor of cardiology in Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital in New Delhi.
As of now, the Mumbai police has transferred the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for further investigation. As per Supreme Court's directions from its verdict in Rhea's petition on 19th August, any new case or FIR in Sushant's case will be investigated by CBI.
Meanwhile, Rajput’s family lawyer Vikas Singh alleged that the complaint was illegal and that they will take serious action in this matter. Singh reportedly accused the 'Jalebi' actress of trying to deflect the investigation by filing such complaints.
'Dil Bechara' actor Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14. Since his heavenly board, CBI, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) are striving hard to bust the death probe. Several key suspects have been interrogated so far but actor's girlfriend continues to be the centre of controversy.
