Sushant Singh Rajput case: WhatsApp messages reveal KK Singh attempted to reach out to son via Rhea Chakraborty and Shruti Modi – Times of India

All eyes have now turned to the Supreme Court to issue a verdict on Rhea Chakraborty’s plea seeking the transfer of KK Singh’s FIR from the Bihar Police to the Mumbai Police in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case. However, ahead of the hearing, a new Whatsapp message from the late actor’s father to Rhea and manager Shruti Modi has now come to light.

In an exclusive on Times Now, a message dated November 29, 2019, has come to light allegedly indicating that Singh made an attempt to reach out to his son through the two ladies, now accused of ‘abetment to suicide’.

A message to Shruti indicates that Singh allegedly expressed his desire to come to Mumbai and asked for his tickets to be booked. “Ab tum bat nahi kar rahi ho to main Mumbai jana chahta hun. Fli ka ticket bhek do,” read a line in the message.

It must be noted, however, that the screenshots now made public do not reveal if the messages were acknowledged either by Chakraborty or Modi.

According to the channel, KK Singh, in his statement to the CBI has now alleged that the investigative agency should look into his son’s death as a case of a ‘murder’ and not an ‘abetment to suicide’.

This comes in just weeks after Singh filed an FIR with the Bihar Police, accusing Rhea Chakraborty, Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Showik Chakraborty, Samuel Miranda, Shruti Modi for ‘abetment to suicide’ among other charges.

The report also claims that the recent developments in the investigations, media reports, including circumstances where evidence was allegedly ‘destroyed’, lead the family to ask that the case be looked into as a murder.

Meanwhile, Rhea filed in an added plea in the Supreme Court seeking protection from an alleged “unfair media trial” against her in connection with the late actor’s death case.

“The petitioner (Rhea Chakraborty) is already convicted by media even before a fowl-play in the death of Sushant Singh Rajput is established. Extreme trauma and infringement of privacy of the rights of the petitioner is caused due to constant sensationalisation of this case,” an excerpt from the affidavit read.

The CBI had registered an FIR against the 6 people accused by the Singh family last week, after receiving the Centre’s nod to take over the matter. The ED has also registered a case in the matter and has since summoned all the accused and a few others to probe the financial aspects of the case.
