Shekhar Suman's tweets came after he announced that he is backing down and will not continue to fight for Sushant. Shekhar Suman wrote that he has decided to take a backseat in the movement because Sushant’s family is completely silent on and that made it very uncomfortable for Shekar to go on with the process. Calling it Sushant's family's 'prerogative', Suman wrote that people should respect it.

Sushant Singh Rajput's case

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14, by seemingly committing suicide according to the police. However, with many conspiracy theories that surfaced on social media, it is suspected that he did not die by suicide. Shekhar Suman has been at the forefront in Sushant Singh Rajput's case. He also shared MP Subramanian Swamy's letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requesting that the CBI be involved in the case and penned, "Finally, here seems to be reason for all of us to be happy a wee bit."
