Earlier, Professor RC Singh of Delhi Technological University who taught Sushant Singh Rajput during his college days had demanded a CBI probe in the late actor's death case. While speaking to Republic TV, Professor Singh said Sushant was an intelligent and focused student who knew what he had to do in his life.
"I demand that Central Bureau of Investigation must investigate the Sushant Singh Death case because an actor who accomplished a lot in his career and was progressing day by day should get justice and truth must come out," said Professor RC Singh. While speaking exclusively to Republic TV, Professor Singh added that Sushant was a focussed, bright and well-determined student."
"He was a calm, composed, and a bright student. He used to sit on either the second or third row in the class. He was always attentive, focused, and interactive during the class. Whenever there was any confusion, he always clarified and made notes for the future. He was so intelligent that he could have chosen any other field but he chose mechanical engineering which shows that he was a hard-worker, focussed, well determined, and a very bright student" added Professor Singh. Sushant had died by alleged suicide on June 14, but the truth of it will now be determined by the CBI.
