In the wake of the AIIMS forensic report, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said that Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput had died by suicide and demanded the release of Rhea Chakroborty while alleging that she was a "victim of political conspiracy".  "Rhea is innocent and should be released without further harassment to her. She has been a victim of political conspiracy," Chowdhury said.
