Rhea Chakraborty released from Byculla jail after a month | Sushant Singh Rajput Death Probe LIVE Updates

 The Supreme Court on Thursday will hear a PIL seeking a court-monitored CBI probe into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput's former manager Disha Salian, along with the agency's probe into the death of the Bollywood actor, as both are "inter-linked".

The PIL is listed for hearing before a bench headed by Chief Justice S.A. Bobde and comprising Justices A.S. Bopanna and V. Ramasubramanian.

The plea, filed by Puneet Kaur Dhanda through advocate Vineet Dhanda, has sought direction to Mumbai Police to place on record the detailed investigation report in the case, after it was reported that her case file is missing or has been deleted.

Shortly after the family members of late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput wrote to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) demanding the reconstitution of a medical team, the federal agency sleuths were once again in Mumbai.

A CBI source said that the investigation into Sushant's death is still continuing and all the aspects are being looked into "meticulously".

"As per the demand of the investigation, either a team or a set of officers visit Mumbai at regular intervals, besides the agency officers from the Mumbai branch present there," the source added.

The source, however, refused to share the name of the officials of the agency who arrived in Mumbai from Delhi.

The source said that the CBI sleuths reached Mumbai to collect more details in the case.

Hours after writing to to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) director questioning the AIIMS report in the death case of Sushant Singh Rajput, senior advocate Vikas Singh held a press conference on Wednesday requesting the Central Bureau of Investigation to look into the conduct of Dr. Sudhir Gupta, who headed the AIIMS panel that re-examined the actor's death.

Addressing the media, Singh said, "The CBI should look into the conduct of the AIIMS team, they should examine who these doctors met and examine the statements that they have given in the media."

"If it's a suicide or not, it is not a question that shall not be answered by the doctors, it's for the investigators to say," Singh added, while raising questions on the AIIMS opinion.

Mumbai: Media personnel wait outside Byculla jail ahead of actor Rhea Chakraborty's release, after being granted bail by Bombay High Court today

Rhea will be released today, says her lawyer Satish Maneshinde.

Sushant Singh Rajput's family lawyer Vikas Singh writes a letter to CBI Director, raising objections over forensic examination report submitted by AIIMS to CBI & calling it faulty. 

Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde told India TV, "Pleased with the High Court verdict. NCB has falsely implicated Rhea Chakraborty. Rhea should not have been kept in custody for even a single day."

The lawyer said, "We are happy with the order of the Hon'ble Bombay High Court that Rhea Chakraborty has been granted bail. Truth and justice prevailed. Rhea's arrest and detention were completely unfair and beyond the reach of the law. Witchhunt by three Central agencies- CBI, ED and NCB, must come to an end. We are committed to truth. Satyamev Jayate. "

Sushant Singh Rajput's sister Shweta tweeted, "“Tough Times dont last, but Tough people do”  We are strong and ever so powerful, we just need to believe in our own strength.  Staying strong is an art and an unfailing promise to oneself that no matter what is thrown at me I’ll never ever breakdown! #SSRWarriorsRoar4Justice"

After AIIMS final forensic report, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has confirmed that Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide. A report in Indian Express claims that the investigation claims that when the crime scene was recreated, no evidence of murder was found.  Also, the forensic audit of Sushant's bank accounts has not shown anything "suspicious" as well. The report claimed that out of Rs 70 crore worth transaction by the actor, only Rs 55 lakh were spent on Rhea Chakraborty. According to the IE report, the CBI will now focus on the catalysts that can be the reason behind the actor giving up on life which can be professional rivalry, drug abuse, nepotism in Bollywood.

The Indian Express report stated, "Chakraborty continues to be under scanner for abetment to suicide. But it is true CBI hasn’t yet found any motive for abetment. There was a forensic audit done of Rajput’s account. There is nothing concrete in the audit report to suggest that Chakraborty siphoned off funds and this led to the actor’s suicide. The expenses incurred by Rajput on her are comparatively small and can easily be explained as expenses on a friend. However, there are many angles to the suicide and our investigation is still on."

Rhea Chakraborty and brother Showik had moved Bombay High Court seeking bail after their arrest by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in a case allegedly linked to a ‘drug angle’ into actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s untimely death on June 14. The court had reserved its decision in the matter and will pronounce it today.

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput's sisters Priyanka Singh and Meetu Singh on Tuesday moved the Bombay High Court, seeking to quash the FIR registered against them by Mumbai Police for forgery and procuring fake medical prescription for their late brother. The Bandra police lodged the FIR against the duo on September 7, based on a complaint filed by Rajput's girlfriend and actress Rhea Chakraborty, who is currently in jail in connection with a drugs case related to the actor's death.
