  • Bombay HC directs CBI to investigate Disha Salian case
  • Police investigation found to have major discrepancies
  • Family expresses renewed hope while public scrutiny intensifies

Background

Disha Salian, former manager of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, died under suspicious circumstances in 2022. Initial police reports labeled the death as suicide, but numerous pieces of evidence and witness statements contradicted that conclusion.

Court’s Verdict

During a hearing last week, the Bombay High Court observed that the police inquiry displayed "clear inconsistencies" and "more questions than answers." The court ordered the Central Bureau of Investigation to conduct an independent probe, ensuring that no individual can be labeled an accused without solid proof.
