Congress leer Tariq Anwar on Monday lambasted BJP for politicising Sushant Singh Rajput's death case with a 'motive' to take case from Mumbai police and handing it over to CBI in an attempt to protect 'self-proclaimed' friend of Sushant Sandip Ssingh. Anwar demanded that film producer Ssingh should be probed in Sushant's case who is still t interrogated by central probe ncy in its ongoing investigation. In last few days, Congress has been continuously trying to find alleged link between Sandip Ssingh-BJP with Sushant Singh Rajput's case, though its claim that BJP tried to take case away from Mumbai police is hackneyed and force-fitted to say least.

Congress leer's reaction comes a day after when Maharashtra Home minister Anil Deshmukh on Sunday said that he forwarded all complaints received against film producer Sandip Ssingh to CBI for furr investigation. Deshmukh revealed that he received many complaints to inquire about Sandip Ssingh who h produced  Vivek Oberoi starrer- 'PM Narendra Modi' biopic; specifically his connections with BJP, Bollywood industry and drug mafia angle that recently surfaced in Sushant's death case.
