His legal representative, Nilesh Ojha, confirmed that the Joint Commissioner of Police had accepted the complaint. The allegations include serious charges of gang rape and murder.
On Saturday, CBI in its closure reports said that it did not find any evidence that anyone had driven Sushant Singh Rajput to suicide, and Rhea Chakraborty and her family have been given a clean chit.
Her father, Satish Salian, has approached the Bombay High Court, demanding a new investigation into what he claims was a "politically-orchestrated cover-up."
Sushant, 34, was found dead at his Bandra residence on June 14, 2020, which created a huge controversy, with later the investigation being handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) a few days ago, had opposed the first information report (FIR) filed against Sushant Singh Rajput's sisters on the basis of actress Rhea Chakraborty's complaint and said that it was ‘vitiated and bad in law.’
The accused, identified as Vibhor Anand, who claims to be an advocate has been brought to Mumbai and his Twitter account has been suspended for violating the social media platform’s guidelines.
The lawsuit names Republic TV Arnab Goswami and Pradeep Bhandari and Times Now Navika Kumar and Rahul Shivshankar.
Rhea and her brother Showick Chakraborty who have been in jail for nearly a month were arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) for procuring and financing drugs for actor Rajput on his instructions.
The actor said, ”I'll be a liar if I say that this problem does not exist in our industry. It exists, just like every industry. But every person in every profession is not involved in such problems. This is impossible."
The NCB has also seized phones of Sushant Singh Rajput’s talent manager Jaya Saha, fashion designer Simone Khambatta and actress Rakul Preet Singh.
