Previously, a sculptor named Sukanto Roy in Asansol had created a wax statue of Sushant. Moreover, a few days ago, a 3-city protest rally, after Patna and Varanasi, had concluded in Kolkata. Sushant’s friends like Ganesh Hiwarkar and Smita Parikh were also present at the event, where religious rituals, banners and slogans seeking ‘justice for Sushant’ became a talking point. 

Sushant Singh Rajput case

Sushant was found dead at his residence in Mumbai’s Bandra on June 14. The  Central Bureau of Investigation is now probing the case after Mumbai Police investigated the case for over 40 days and Bihar Police also stepped in briefly to investigate the case registered by the family. The Enforcement Directorate and Narcotics Control Bureau also entered the fray as SSR’s family accused Rhea Chakraborty and others of cheating and embezzlement.

The NCB also arrested Rhea, her brother Showik and members of Sushant’s staff for their alleged involvement in a drug cartel. Rhea is currently out on bail, while Showik is still lodged in Byculla jail. Amid numerous inconsistencies and loopholes in the case, the CBI clarified that the probe on all angles was still on, as AIIMS team’s alleged forensic report ruling out murder was called out over Dr Sudhir Gupta’s U-turn.
