In its editorial titled 'Is re a reason for Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide or...' on Sunday, Shiv Sena has made some scathing statements about late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput by calling it 't a murder'.

He has also ridiculed media for treating his suicide as a celebratory event and monetizing on trivia related to his personal life.

Raut opined that actor's death cant be called a murder as he had consulted several psychiatrists for treating his mental health and even changed doctors but to avail. He asked, "Sushant had t written any letter (suicide te) etc. before suicide. Neverless, many women and people associated with film industry are being questioned for 11 hours. What was this for?". Raut added, "What clues are expected to be found in work agreements that have been demanded by police as proof?"

Continuing this thread of questions, Raut also pointed out that exposing personal 'affairs' of a 34-year-old actor was t required, especially after he has died. He claimed that at least 10 actresses have been summoned by police till w for ir alleged relationships with Sushant Singh Rajput. He also cited rent of Sushant's luxurious Bandra apartment, his cars and monthly expenses to prove that actor was financially stable and could t possibly be troubled by dearth of work.
