The Mumbai Police, led by Deputy Commissioner of Police Raj Tilak Roshan, are thoroughly investigating the circumstances surrounding Mehta’s death. Roshan stated that forensic teams are involved in examining all aspects of the case. “The body of Anil Mehta, who lived on the 6th floor, was found and has been sent for postmortem. We are investigating all angles and our teams are working diligently to piece together the details. While the initial evidence suggests suicide, we are continuing our investigation to ensure all aspects are covered,” he said.

In addition to interviewing the Arora family, including Malaika and Amrita, the police plan to question Mehta’s doctor and other close associates to gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation.
