CM Uddhav Thackeray Breaks Silence On Sushant Singh Rajput Case: ‘Mumbai Police is not inefficient’

Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray has broken his silence on the Sushant Singh Rajput case and expressed full faith in the Mumbai Police. He also slammed those calling for a transfer of the case to CBI. In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, CM Uddhav Thackeray said, “I would like to condemn those who are raising questions over the ability of the police. Mumbai Police is not inefficient. If anyone has any proof about the case they can bring it to us and we will interrogate and punish the guilty.”

He further added, “Please don’t use this case as an excuse to create friction between the two states of Maharashtra and Bihar.”

He also addressed former CM Devendra Fadnavis and said, “The opposition can even bring Interpol or followers of the Namaste Trump event into the inquiry. Devendra Fadnavis should understand that it is the same police whom he has worked with, in the last five years. It is the same police that have sacrificed so much during the ongoing fight against coronavirus.”

Meanwhile, Sushant Singh Rajput’s ex-girlfriend Ankita Lokhande has stated that the actor was not depressed. Ahe said, “The Sushant I knew was full of life. He was an extremely bright person. He may get upset at times, but he won’t get depressed. Obviously, a person can undergo changes, but his/her innate nature can’t change. Sushant was an extremely balanced person.”

Bihar Police had been to Ankita’s residence on Thursday. She said, “The Mumbai Police did ask me questions about Sushant, but it was not a statement. Maybe they did not find anything interesting from me about him. I have no idea why they didn’t contact his family.”
