She raised questions on Disha Salian, Sushant's former manager's death, and wrote, 'Why was the investigation ignored'.

Complaint filed by Sushant's father KK Singh mentions, "On June 8 night, Sushant’s secretary Disha committed suicide. Rhea had appointed her as Sushant’s secretary. Later, Rhea blocked Sushant’s number on her cell. Sushant was afraid that Rhea could have made him responsible for his manager’s suicide as she had threatened to frame him in the secretary’s suicide case." Bihar Police filed an FIR on the basis of KK Singh's complaint.

Disha Salian death case folder 'inadvertently deleted' by Mumbai Police amid Sushant probe

In an absolutely jawdropping development, sources have revealed that the folder with details of Sushant Singh Rajput's ex-manager Disha Salian's suicide investigation has been mistakenly deleted. The update comes after the team of Bihar Police in Mumbai requested the city police to provide details of their investigation into Salian's alleged suicide on June 9, five days before Sushant's death. Bihar Police sources have confirmed that the folder containing details of Mumbai Police's probe into Disha's suicide has now been deleted "by mistake".
