Mumbai: Actor Sooraj Pancholi, charge sheeted by CBI for allegedly abetting suicide of actor Jiah Khan, has apparently hidden facts and fabricated information during questioning as per the forensic analysis of his statements.
The analysis, which is a part of charge sheet filed by the agency in the suicide case of 26-year old Nafeesa Rizvi alias Jiah Khan, has established that Sooraj was concealing relevant information about actual reason behind the incident and the statement given by him is incomplete and fabricated. Sooraj was also not willing to explain his last argument with Jiah, the sources said.
Bollywood actor Pancholi, son of actor Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab, refused to be part of any scientific tests like polygraph or brain mapping which the agency wanted to conduct to get to the bottom of his alleged role in the incident, the sources said.
Sooraj and Jiah had met through Facebook in September 2012 and the friendship blossomed into "intimate relationship" over a period of time, the charge sheet says. It is alleged that on the fateful day of June 3, 2013, when Jiah was found hanging by her mother at her residence, she had left the house of Sooraj Pancholi in the morning where they had been staying together for last two days.
CBI has alleged that there were heated exchanges of messages between Sooraj and Jiah at 10 PM in which she accused him of telling lies about his meeting with a common lady friend. Jiah continuously messaged Sooraj which infuriated him so he deleted her BBM account from his mobile and switched off the phone at 10.20 PM.
Later when Sooraj received a call from Jiah, there was again a heated exchange of words between the two. CBI alleged that he sent 10 messages to her in the night which were abusive and accusatory in nature.
The board of forensic medicines opined death is suicidal in nature which corroborates post mortem done by Mumbai doctors.
In October 2013, Rabiya, Jiah's mother had moved to Bombay High Court alleging that Jiah had been murdered and sought a CBI probe which was granted.
