Sushant death case: Rhea Chakraborty not summoned by CBI yet

Actor Rhea Chakraborty and her family members have not been summoned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) so far in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case.

“If they receive the summons, they will appear before the agency,” said Rhea’s lawyer Satish Maneshinde.

After much media hype, the case was transferred to CBI last week, following Supreme Court intervention. In July, Sushant’s father had filed a case of abetment to suicide and siphoning off funds against Rhea, Sushant’s girlfriend. Based on the FIR, the Enforcement Directorate has also filed a case against the actor.

On Sunday, the CBI team questioned Sushant’s friend Siddharth Pithani, cook Neeraj Singh and domestic help Deepesh Sawant in Mumbai for about 5 hours, and later visited the actor’s flat in Bandra along with them. Forensic science experts and Mumbai police officials were also part of the CBI team which visited Rajput’s residence.

On Saturday too the CBI team accompanied by Pithani, Neeraj, and Sawant visited Sushant’s house in Bandra to reconstruct the sequence of events before he was found dead.

Another CBI team visited the state-run Cooper Hospital in the city, where autopsy had been performed on Rajput’s body. Some CBI officials went to the Bandra police station to meet Mumbai police officials who were investigating Rajput’s alleged suicide earlier.
