Sushant's brother-in-law questions Rhea's presence during therapy sessions 

Sushant Singh Rajput's brother-in-law, Vishal Kirti pointed out in his blog post saying, "Disclosing mental health information by a psychotherapist/psychologist is not only unethical but also illegal (except for certain circumstances which don’t apply here). I leave it to my father-in-law to press charges on this matter". According to reports, Rhea Chakraborty used to accompany Sushant to his therapy sessions.

Further, in the blog, Vishal Kirti said, "The FIR claims that Sushant was perhaps given psychotropic drugs by Rhea (maybe even without his knowledge). Covert/Surreptitious medication is also perhaps illegal in the 21st century."

Vishal also added that Rhea's presence during the session might mean that she wanted to keep "tabs on Sushant’s conversations with the psychotherapist and keeping evidence of mental health issues so that it can be used later for blackmail or to justify the firm control on his resources". He explained that if Sushant was "gaslighted" and "blackmailed" by Rhea then he had no privacy to discuss it.

Lastly, Sushant Singh Rajput's brother-in-law claimed that "based on the evidence in the public domain so far and the claims in the FIR, Rhea is the prime suspect in this case. It will indeed be a shocking surprise to the entire nation if it is found in the court of law that she was a loving partner and not an opportunist who eliminated most of Sushant’s ties with his family and friends". He had also added a disclaimer at the beginning of his post saying this was his individual opinion.

Sushant Singh Rajput's case update

Sushant's brother-in-law also questioned the late actor's therapist's claim that he was suffering from bipolar disorder. According to Vishal, such a 'life-changing' claim was made within two months of diagnosis which seemed suspicious on her part. He had also pointed out that looking at all the records, it becomes clear that it was Rhe Chakraborty who sought treatment for Sushant's mental health rather than Sushant himself. In fact, Vishal said that before October-November 2019, no one else had ever complained about Sushant Singh Rajput's mental health.
