Sushant's Close Friend Summoned by Bandra Police after Creative Manager Records Statement

Sushant Singh Rajput's sudden demise has shocked the whole nation. After a lot of media reports claimed a professional rivalry that instigated the actor to take this drastic step, the Mumbai Police started probing other angles instead of closing the case after the post mortem report stated death due to hanging.

In their thorough probe, in the last one week the police have recorded statements of friends, colleagues and house help staff and now after taking his creative manager's statement, the Bandra Police summoned late actor's one of the closest friends and ex-publicist, Rohini Iyer for interrogation.

According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Iyer arrived at the Police Station on Monday morning and stayed back till late afternoon recording her statement.

Rohini was not only Sushant's ex-publicist, but also a very close friend of the 34-year-old actor and had even penned a lengthy eulogy slamming all those speaking up in a series of strong posts.

The report further stated that one more of Sushant's close aide was called in for recording his statement but his/her identity has not been disclosed.

In her statement, sources revealed to the tabloid that Iyer spoke about the equation she shared with Sushant on a personal level and her knowledge of the actor's personal life. 

The police officials working on the case are leaving no stone untured in their investigation, since last week, they have recorded statements of multiple people including the actor's rumoured girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty.

Not just that, the police have also sought Sushant's contract copies with Yash Raj Films and other production houses in the past. The police have formed three separate teams to investigate the case which is being supervised by the Mumbai Police's top brass, reported Mumbai Mirror.

Sushant committed suicide on June 14, 2020 by hanging from the ceiling of his sprawling Bandra residence in Mumbai. The 34-year-old was cremated at Vile Parle's Pawan Hans crematorium after a thorough post-mortem that was conducted on him at Dr. R N Cooper Municipal General Hospital and his organs were sent to JJ Hospital. 

His co-stars from both Television and Bollywood industry and close friends were present at the time of funeral. However, his family did not wait in Mumbai for too long and left for their hometown Patna where they immersed the actor's ashes in the Ganga on June 17, 2020. Over the weekend, a prayer meet was held at the actor's Patna home which saw politicians arriving to pay their last respects.
