Sushant Singh Rajput's Friend Mahesh Shetty Posts 'Justice for Sushant', Says 'I Deserve to Know...'

Sushant Singh Rajput’s close friend and actor Mahesh Shetty has penned a heartbreaking post on the late actor’s death anniversary. Sushant was found dead at his Bandra apartment in Mumbai on June 14 2020. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) continues to investigate the death of Sushant, which has been ruled as a suicide. However, no closure report has been filed in the matter so far by the agency.

In his post, Mahesh said that Sushant’s family and his fans “deserve to know” what happened with the late actor. He also added a hashtag “justice for Sushant” to his Instagram story.

Mahesh wrote, “How much longer I wonder? Another year passes by… They said it gets easier and time heals it all but the questions keep pestering, making it even more difficult… I keep waiting, keep my utmost faith alive in the law of the land but I deserve to know… We deserve to know! #JusticeforSushant.”

Earlier this year, Sushant’s elder sister, Shweta Singh Kirti, had requested for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s intervention into the CBI probe. Shweta took to her Instagram handle and addressed PM Modi, “I wanted to bring to your attention that this is the 45th month of Bhai’s passing away and we still don’t know any updates on the investigation that is being conducted by the CBI. I would highly request your intervention into the matter because as a family and as a country, we are grappling with so many answered questions in this case.”

“Your attention will really help us to get to know where the CBI has reached in its investigation. It will even help us to inculcate the faith within our judiciary system. It will really bring peace to a lot of howling hearts who have been looking for some kind of relief, answers, who wants to know the truth, what happened that day on 14th of June,” she added.

While the Mumbai police registered an Accidental Death Report and started a probe into the case of Sushant’s death, his father in July 2020 lodged a complaint with the Bihar police, alleging that the late actor’s then-girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family members had abetted his suicide. The case was later transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation, which has since then been carrying out a probe into the actor’s death.
