Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to constitute a new medical board in order to ensure
that the investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case remains impartial.

“The disclosure
of a 200% conclusion by an All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) doctor
in the forensic team headed by Dr Gupta in Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case,
on the basis of photographs, is a dangerous trend,” Manishinde said.
“To keep
the investigations impartial and free from inference, the CBI must constitute a
new medical board. The agencies are being pressurised to reach a pre-determined
result for obvious reasons ahead of the Bihar Elections. We have seen the VRS
of DG (Gupteshwar) Pandey unfolding a few days back. There should not be a
repetition of such steps,” he added.
His statements
come after lawyer Vikas Singh, who is representing Rajput’s
family, expressed concerns over the delay in the late actor’s death case.
“Getting
frustrated by the delay in CBI taking a decision to convert abetment to suicide
to Murder of SSR. The Doctor who is part of AIIMS team had told me long back
that the photos sent by me indicated 200% that it’s death by strangulation and
not suicide,” he tweeted.
In an
earlier presser, he said, “Sushant’s family worried about probe direction. The
family feels that it is a bid to divert attention to narcotics. There was not a
single press statement released by CBI which they otherwise do and this is
worrisome.”

death case is currently being probed by three agencies, the Narcotics Control
Bureau (NCB), the CBI, and The Enforcement
Directorate (ED).
