“What he did is right”: Sushant Singh Rajput’s father on PIL filed by Disha Salian’s father
Patna (Bihar) [India], March 20 (ANI): Late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s father, KK Singh on Thursday supported the Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed by Disha Salian’s father seeking a probe into his daughter’s death, as he expressed hope that a conclusion could be reached on both the incidents.
“I don’t know his reasons and motivation for moving the court, but what he has done is right and if through this we can get a conclusion on whether it was a suicide or murder, and in this Sushant’s case can also be known on what happened,” KK Singh told ANI.
Earlier on March 19, Disha Salian’s father had filed a petition in the Bombay High Court, seeking a probe into his daughter’s death and called for interrogating UBT Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray.
Talking to ANI further, Singh said he is not aware of the reasons Salian’s father moved the court, as earlier the latter had also agreed the death was by suicide.
“Before (Disha) Salian’s father had said he doesn’t know anything, it is suicide only, but after that how and what he researched to say it is not a suicide but a murder, that I do not know. If it is true or not how can I say?” Sushant Singh Rajput’s father added.
He also refused to comment on whether he believes there is a connection between the deaths of his son and Salian too, saying “I cannot say anything, how can I talk on the topic which I don’t know about.”
Singh also said that he had hope from current Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and believs that he would take the right decision.
“I have hope in the government, the government has changed, and I have hope in the current CM (Devendra Fadnavis), whatever he will do, he will do right and do it swiftly,” the actor’s father told ANI.
Disha Salian who was a celebrity manager was found dead on June 8, 2020. In 2023, the Mumbai Police formed a three-member special investigation team (SIT) to probe Disha Salian’s death. The Mumbai Police registered an accidental death case in the matter.
