Jiah Khan’s mother Rabia Khan claims CBI, police never collected evidence to prove suicide

Sooraj Pancholi made it to the headlines after his name came up in the Jiah Khan case. He made headlines once more yesterday as Jiah's mother Rabia Khan testified in court that her daughter wanted to break up with actor Sooraj because of physical and psychological abuse. During the court hearing, Rabia mentioned Sooraj and accused him of abetment of suicide. 

According to reports from Pinkvilla, Rabia claimed before the special court that neither the police nor the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had gathered any "legal evidence" to confirm her daughter's suicide. She also stated before the court that she thought it was a murder case rather than a suicide.

On Thursday, Jiah Khan's mother Rabia Khan continued recording her testimony in the case before special judge A S SayyadRabia described how she discovered her daughter hanging with a dupatta over her neck. After a 10-minute wait, she phoned the actor Anju Mahendroo, who immediately arrived, untied her neck, and lay her on the bed. The moment the doctor got there, he pronounced her dead. Rabia even claimed that an officer had examined the crime site and declared that it appeared that foul play had taken place.

Later, Rabia Khan recalled that Jiah Khan's things, including her phone, had been confiscated by the police. She claimed seeing multiple nasty and abusive messages from Sooraj Pancholi, as well as missed calls from him. When they arrived at the police station, Jiah's phone had already been unlocked, despite the fact that the police had called her other daughter to unlock Jiah's phone. She added that her phone had lost a lot of images and messages.

For the unversed Jiah Khan reportedly passed away after hanging herself in her Juhu apartment on June 3, 2013. Just a few days after her death, a six-page long hand-written letter was procured from her residence allegedly addressed to Jiah’s boyfriend at the time, Sooraj Pancholi. The letter reportedly brought several revelations to the fore including an abortion, a nervous breakdown due to an unhealthy relationship with Pancholi among more.
