A day after some of Jiah Khan's secret letters revealed that her relationship with her boyfriend Sooraj was torturing her, Jiah Khan's mother Rabia insisted over foul play into her daughter's death. Police arrested Jiah's boyfriend Sooraj Pancholi on June 10. Sooraj was released on July 10 after being granted bail by High Court.
Sooraj is the son of actors Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab.
In her petition, Rabia has concluded that, "The petitioner has strong reasons to believe the entire probe has been hushed up at the behest of the police, who were pre-decided to carry out the probe in a manner that the truth does not come out”. “The matter, which could have been investigated as a case of murder, has been converted into a case of suicide.”
