On Wednesday, the CBI told the Bombay High Court that Rhea Chakraborty‘s accusation against the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput‘s sisters for obtaining a fake medical prescription for him is “mostly speculative”. Such speculation cannot be the basis of an FIR, CBI said in response to Rajput’s sisters Priyanka Singh and Meetu Singh’s petition seeking to quash the case lodged against them by Mumbai Police.
Rhea Chakraborty has alleged that a fabricated prescription was used to help him procure medicines banned under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act only a few days before his suicide in June 2020.
Rajput’s sisters filed the petition through advocate Madhav Thorat on October 6 seeking that the FIR filed against them by Bandra Police here be quashed.
If Rhea Chakraborty was aware of the mobile phone chat between Rajput and his sister Priyanka in June 2020 during which Priyanka allegedly sent him a medical prescription, then Rhea should not have kept silent till September, the CBI said.
The police’s FIR names Rajput’s two sisters and a doctor of the Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital in Delhi, Tarun Kumar, who allegedly signed the medical prescription. The HC will hear the petition on November 4.
