Bombay HC rejects Jiah Khan's mother's plea for SIT probe
February 09, 2017 13:01
The Bombay high court on Thursday rejected the plea filed by late actress Jiah Khan's mother, Rabia Khan, demanding a special investigation team to probe the former's death case.
Rabia had, in February last year, filed a petition in the Bombay high court, seeking an SIT probe in the case.
Earlier, she had filed a petition in the high court against the Central Bureau of Investigation's report categorising the actress's death on June 3, 2013, as suicidal and not homicidal.
Jiah's boyfriend-actor Sooraj Pancholi was arrested for abetting her suicide on June 10, 2013, but released on July 2 the same year after the High Court granted him bail.
