New Delhi : The Supreme Court Wednesday said the truth behind the death of gifted and talented artist Sushant Singh Rajput should come out, even as the Centre informed that it has accepted the recommendation of Bihar government for a CBI probe in the matter.
A bench of Justice Hrishikesh Roy directed Maharashtra, Bihar and Sushant’s father Krishna Kishore Singh to file their replies within three days on a plea by Bollywood actor Rhea Chakraborty who is seeking transfer of the FIR accusing her of abetting Sushant’s suicide from Patna to Mumbai.
The apex court, which posted the matter for hearing next week, also directed Mumbai Police to place before it the status report of the probe conducted so far in Sushant’s death case.
At the outset, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, told the court that the Bihar government’s recommendation has been accepted and the case has been transferred to the CBI.
