Sushil Modi slams Maha govt for non-cooperation in Sushant's death probe

Patna, Aug 1 (PTI) The Uddhav Thackeray government in
Maharashtra is under pressure from the Congress-funded
Bollywood mafia, and this is the reason for it being hell-bent
to save all elements connected with suicide by death of actor
Sushant Singh Rajput, Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Sushil
Kumar Modi said on Saturday.
Making a scathing attack at the grand old party, the
senior BJP leader asked, "What will the Congress show to the
people of Bihar?"
In a series of tweets in hindi, Sushil Modi vented his
anger on the Shiv Sena led coalition ministry in Maharashtra
for creating hurdles for the visiting Bihar police team to
probe the 34-year-old actor's death.
"Uddhav Thackeray is under pressure from the Congress-
funded Bollywood mafia, so its bent on saving all the elements
responsible in the case. What will the Congress show to the
people of Bihar?" the BJP leader said in a tweet message.
He said that the Bihar government would ensure that
family of the departed Patna-born filmstar get justice.
"The Bihar government not only ordered an inquiry, but
also filed a caveat in the Supreme Court, requesting that
Bihar's side be heard while hearing Rhea Chakraborty's
petition," he tweeted.
"The state government will go to any extent to bring
justice to Sushant," he said in another tweet.
The suicide of the budding actor has left millions of
Biharis shocked and saddened, so almost all parties want a CBI
probe into the case,Sushil Modi, who had visited Rajput's home
here to console his father last month, said.
He slammed the Maharashtra police for its indifferent
attitude towards the investigating Bihar police team in the
case in which an FIR has been lodged in Patna on the basis of
a written complaint of Rajput's 74-year-old father KK Singh on
July 25.
"Now the Bihar Police, which came to investigate the
death of Bihar's son Sushant Singh Rajput, is not getting the
support of Mumbai Police," he said pointing out some earlier
incidents when people of Bihar were subjected to misbehaviour
in the western metropolis.
"Earlier in Maharashtra, people of Bihar used to get
complaints of misbehaviour, but now the Uddhav government,
based on the crutches of the Congress-NCP, has reached its
limit," he said.
"During the lockdown, the withdrawal of Bihari labourers
from Maharashtra was disrupted.Now the Bihar Police, which
came to investigate the death of Bihar's son Sushant Singh
Rajput, is not getting the support of Mumbai Police," he
added.
The BJP leader has already sought a CBI probe into the
actor's death. PTI AR
