No foul play in Disha's death says her father

    (Eds: Recasting overnight story)
    Mumbai, Aug 6 (PTI) The father of Disha Salian, former
manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, has said he does
not suspect any foul play in her death and he is "completely
satisfied" with the probe being conducted by Mumbai Police in
the case, an official said.
    In a letter sent to assistant commissioner of police
(ACP), Malvani, on Wednesday, Satish Salian alleged that media
persons were harassing his family by repeatedly questioning
their faith in Mumbai Police and their way of inquiry into her
death, the official said.
    According to police, Disha Salian, 28, allegedly
committed suicide by jumping from a high-rise building in
Malad area here on June 8.
    Rajput, 34, was found hanging at his apartment in
suburban Bandra on June 14.
    An accidental death report (ADR) was registered
in connection with Disha Salian's death at Malvani police
station.
    Her father in his letter to police said his family
does not suspect any foul play in her death and they are
satisfied with the investigation conducted by the Mumbai
Police and have faith in them, a senior official said.
    He alleged that his family was being harassed by
journalists and media by repeatedly questioning their faith in
the Mumbai Police, the official said.
    Satish Salian, who mentioned Naigaon, Dadar, in
central Mumbai as his address in the letter, said he had
already submitted a written complaint at the Malvani police
station and the ACP's office on July 13 against "derogatory"
posts and forwards being shared by people that defamed his
deceased daughter and his family.
    According to the official, in his letter he alleged
that "news about her (Disha's) involvement with any politician
or attending parties with big names of the film fraternity,
rape and murder are all stories cooked up by media people just
to sell it to channels and these stories hold no truth."
    He also requested the police to take action against
the journalists, influencers, politicians and media concerned
for their insensitive act towards his family, the official
said.
    The Mumbai Police, who are probing Rajput's death,
have so far recorded statements of more than 50 people,
including those from the late actor's family, his cook and
people from the film industry.
    A team of Bihar Police is also probing a separate
'abetment to suicide' case on the basis of a complaint filed
by Rajput's father in Patna.
    An official from the Bihar Police earlier said they
will also probe the alleged suicide of Disha Salian.
    Apart from Rajput, she had also managed the work of
actors like Bharti Singh, Rhea Chakraborty and Varun Sharma.
