Yesterday, Rhea Chakraborty along with her father Indrajit and brother Showik was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate.
As reported by India Today, the Supreme Court will hear Rhea’s plea requesting transfer of probe from Patna to Mumbai on August 11. The first hearing took place on August 5, wherein all the parties – (Bihar, Maharashtra and Krishna Kishore Singh) were asked to file their replies to the plea by the Apex Court.
After the Supreme Court hearing on Wednesday, the Centre had told Supreme Court that Sushant’s case was transferred to the CBI. The Central Government has also moved an impleadment application in the Supreme Court – to be made a party in the transfer petition filed by actor Rhea Chakraborty.
The Centre told the court, “On the transfer of investigation of the case to CBI, it is clear that the Union of India is a necessary and proper party to the present proceedings.”
Meanwhile, Sushant Singh Rajput’s father K.K Singh has also moved Supreme Court – filing a counter-affidavit against Rhea’s plea. He stated that since the investigation in the FIR has already been transferred to CBI, Rhea Chakraborty’s plea seeking transfer of probe to Mumbai stands ‘infructuous’ (pointless or unnecessary).
