NCP's Majeed Memon calls ED's role in Sushant's death probe as 'mockery of investigation'

As the Enforcement Directorate registered a case in the alleged money laundering angle in the Sushant Singh Rajput's case, NCP's Majeed Memon has said that he is unable to understand how the agency has entered the fray in this case. Taking to Twitter, he said that even if it is alleged that there is cheating or breach of trust in Sushant's case, the ED probe cannot be justified, adding that it is 'mockery of investigation'. He also spoke to Republic TV and added that Mumbai Police is capable and attempts should not be made to hamper their investigation. He also said that Bollywood is divided into two parts - anti-Sushant and pro-Sushant and 'some elements' are accusing the Mumbai Police falsely. The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) registered a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and will investigate allegations that Rhea Chakraborty siphoned off 15 crores from Sushant Singh Rajput's account. As per sources, ED will send out summons next week. Earlier on Thursday, ED had sought a copy of the FIR registered against Rhea from the Bihar police. I wonder how ED comes in even if it is alleged that there is cheating or breach of trust in Sushant case. CM Maharashtra expresses his anguissh by saying let Interpole be brought in by Opposition.
