Sushant SIngh Rajput

Sushant Singh Rajput's untimely death came as a shocker for thousands of his fans and inspired conspiracy theories and social media campaigns. The investigations took several twists and turn after agencies like the CBI, Enforcement Directorate and the Narcotics Control Bureau stepped in. Ever since NCB has stepped in, the shift from Sushant's death probe has shifted to Bollywood's drug nexus. This has irked his fans as well as his sisters who are hoping for a concrete update from the CBI.

Days after the lawyer representing Sushant Singh Rajput's family claimed the actor had been strangled and accused the CBI of delaying the matter. On Monday afternoon CBI issued an official statement claiming that the investigation is on and every aspect is being looked and considered.

Last week, Sushant Singh Rajput's family's lawyer Vikas Singh had tweeted: "Getting frustrated by the delay in CBI deciding to convert abetment to suicide to Murder of SSR. The Doctor who is part of the AIIMS team had told me long back that the photos sent by me indicated 200% that it's death by strangulation and not suicide. (Sic)"

Sudhir Gupta, the head of the AIIMS forensic team, had denied his claim. "No findings given to CBI yet... final meeting has to be scheduled. No conclusive opinion could be made just by seeing pictures. Our opinion will be clear and conclusive based on evidence," Dr Gupta had said.
