Sushant Singh Rajput Death: 'Duty-Bound To Register FIR Against SSR’s Sisters As They ‘Disclosed Commission Of The Offence’’: Mumbai Police To Bombay HC
In the recent development in Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case, Rhea Chakraborty filed an FIR against Sushant’s sisters Priyanka Singh, Meetu Singh, Dr Tarun Kumar of Ram Manohar Lohiya Hospital and others, before going to jail. In her FIR, Rhea claimed that her sister forged and obtained prescribed drugs to Sushant without consultation. However, Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh has said that the FIR filed by Rhea against Sushant’s sisters was with the CBI for investigation. Later, SSR’s sisters demanded that Rhea’s FIR should be quashed.

Now, days after CBI opposed Rhea’s FIR against SSR’s sisters citing it as ‘vitiated and bad in law’, Mumbai Police told Bombay High Court that Rhea’s complaint “disclosed commission of offence.” According to a report in ABP News, Mumbai Police told the Bombay High Court that they were duty-bound to register an FIR against SSR’s sisters as the complaint lodged against them by actress Rhea Chakraborty "disclosed commission of the offence’. CBI told Bombay High Court that Rhea's accusation is "mostly speculative" and such speculation cannot be the basis of an FIR.

Mumbai Police submitted the affidavit in the court, seeking removal of the petition filed by Sushant Rajput's sisters - Priyanka Singh and Meetu Singh - to quash Rhea’s complaint against them. The affidavit filed in the court read, “The FIR was registered based on the information provided by the first informant (Rhea Chakraborty), disclosing commission of offence. A fake medical prescription was sent by the petitioners with the help of a Delhi-based doctor wherein medicines for anxiety were prescribed to Rajput”.


Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde in a released a statement said, “The FIR filed by Rhea Chakraborty was for a specific offence of having forged a prescription and administered illegally, medicines which were already communicated to Sushant Singh Rajput by Priyanka Singh in her messages on 8th June 2020. When SSR expressed his inability to obtain them without a prescription as communicated by him in his messages, the sister obtained a fraudulent prescription from a known doctor who is not a Mental Health Expert who without any consultation prescribed medicines falling under NDPS Act by falsely depicting that SSR was an OPD registered person, when SSR was very much in Mumbai.

“Those medicines were administered more so when the family was aware that SSR was addicted to Drugs and under treatment at Mumbai. SSR was consulting 5 Doctors in Mumbai who had advised him to abstain from Narcotic Substances as he was being treated for Mental Health issues. Since SSR refused to accede to Rhea's suggestion to follow the advice of the Mumbai Doctors, her departure from SSR home was inevitable, as per the wishes of SSR. The Replies filed by CBI and Mumbai Police are before you all. It is for the Nation to Determine who is carrying out their duties according to law and who is colluding with whom. Satya Meva Jayate”, added his statement.
