Sushant Singh Rajput's Family Moves To Pre-Empt Rhea Chakraborty In Court

New DelhiActor Sushant Singh Rajput's father has asked the Supreme Court to hear him before deciding on Rhea Chakraborty's petition to transfer the actor's death case from Patna to Mumbai. The caveat filed by Mr Rajput's father in the Supreme Court that seeks to block Ms Chakraborty from getting the case transferred to Mumbai comes after the actor's family accused his girlfriend of stopping him from staying in touch with them and cheating, eventually driving him to suicide. Senior lawyer Vikas Singh confirmed the caveat has been filed. Mumbai Police sources have told NDTV the family made no mention of their suspicion or allegations when they first met top officers in Mumbai after the actor's death. The family also did not allege anything in written statements as well, the sources said. The Mumbai Police said they are conducting a thorough investigation, while the Patna Police said they are continuing with their own independent probe. Earlier this month, Ms Chakraborty had called for a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation into Mr Rajput's death, tagging Home Minister Amit Shah in a post on Instagram. Ms Chakraborty who has disclosed that she has been receiving rape and murder threats on social media over the actor's death, said that she "only wanted to understand what prompted him to take the step".
