Satish Salian, father of Disha Salian, who was the former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, has approached the Bombay High Court on Wednesday. He has requested a fresh investigation into the mysterious circumstances of her death, which happened in June 2020.
Demands for FIR and CBI Investigation of Disha Salian
In his petition, Satish Salian has urged the court to order the registration of a First Information Report (FIR) against Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray. He has also requested that the case be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for a fair probe.
Political Reactions to the Petition
A spokesperson from Sena (UBT) has questioned the sudden attention to the case after four years. They suspect a political conspiracy behind the renewed demand for investigation, especially since the Maharashtra legislature’s Budget session is currently ongoing.
Allegations of Cover-Up and Murder
Satish Salian has alleged in his plea that his daughter was brutally raped and murdered. He also claimed that there was a politically driven cover-up to protect influential people. His lawyer, Nilesh Ojha, has stated that they will complete the necessary formalities to register the petition in the High Court on Thursday.
Sushant Singh Rajput’s Sister Demands Justice
Shweta Singh Kirti, sister of the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, has been consistently seeking justice for her brother’s mysterious death. Last year, she released a video urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene in the CBI investigation. She expressed her frustration that even after 45 months, the family has not received any updates from the investigating agency.
This case remains a subject of intense public interest, and many are awaiting further developments from the court.
