Suraj Pancholi, the boyfriend of Jiah Khan, was today remanded in police custody till June 13 by a Mumbai court after prosecution said his interrogation was necessary following allegations of threat, assault and rape against him by the actress in a note discovered three days after her suicide.

Suraj, son of actor couple Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab, was yesterday arrested after being booked under IPC Section 306 for allegedly abetting Jiah's suicide, a week after she ended her life at her Juhu home.

Seeking his custody, police told the court that they have recovered five love letters exchanged between Suraj and Jiah and they wanted to verify the contents. The CCTV footage of the hotel and the house where the two went the day Jiah ended her life has also been recovered, Public Prosecutor A K Pacharane told the court and added there were serious allegations of threat, assault and rape against Suraj.

A distressed Jiah had aborted their baby and this aspect too needed to be probed, the prosecution said in its remand application.
