Sushant Singh Rajput’s family alleges CBI probe into his death to be “incomplete and misleading,” to file protest petition

Five years after the tragic death of Sushant Singh Rajput, the late actor’s family has decided to contest the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) closure report. The report concluded that the 34-year-old star died by suicide and cleared actor Rhea Chakraborty of all allegations. However, Sushant’s family has strongly disputed the findings, terming the investigation “incomplete” and “misleading.”

The CBI, in its March 2025 report, ruled out foul play, stating that there was no evidence to prove that Rhea Chakraborty abetted Rajput’s suicide or misappropriated his finances. The agency emphasized that the actor was alone at his Bandra apartment between June 8 and June 14, 2020 — the day he was found dead. Neither Rhea nor her brother Showik had visited him during that period.

Despite these conclusions, Sushant’s family remains unconvinced. According to a report by Mid-Day, their lawyer, Advocate Varun Singh, criticized the investigation, alleging laxity on the part of the CBI. “This is nothing but an eyewash. If the CBI wanted to uncover the truth, it should have submitted all supporting documents — chats, technical data, witness statements, and medical records. We will file a protest petition against this closure report, which is based on a shoddy investigation,” Singh said.

The CBI’s submission included two closure reports filed earlier this year. The first addressed a complaint lodged by Sushant’s father, K. K. Singh, in Patna, accusing Rhea and her family of driving the actor to suicide and mishandling his finances. The second involved a case Rhea had registered against Sushant’s sisters in Mumbai.

The agency’s findings further stated that Rajput’s financial matters were transparently handled by his chartered accountant and lawyer. It also deemed the actor’s expenses on Rhea — including a 2019 Europe trip — legitimate and voluntary.

Responding to these claims, Advocate Varun Singh asserted that the CBI’s conclusions lacked transparency. “Merely claiming that funds weren’t withdrawn from Sushant’s account isn’t enough. The CBI must present detailed bank statements to substantiate its conclusion. This flimsy report won’t hold in court,” he said.

The case is scheduled to be heard next before a Patna court on December 20, when the family intends to formally challenge the CBI’s closure report.
