According to news agency PTI, the late actor's father K K Singh lodged an FIR with Rajiv Nagar police station under various sections of IPC including 306 (abetment of suicide) on July 25, Additional SHO Jogendra Kumar said. The case has been lodged under various sections of IPC including 341 (punishment for wrongful restraint), 342 (punishment for wrongful confinement), 380 (theft in dwelling house), 406 (punishment for criminal breach of trust), 420 (Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property) and 306 (abetment of suicide). A four-member team of Patna police is in Mumbai for investigation, the news agency reported.

While talking to Republic TV on Wednesday, Vikas Singh said, “We have faith in the Patna police that they will investigate the matter properly, hence we have not demanded CBI probe yet. If need be, the state will transfer the case to CBI. Circumstantial evidence is there to prove that Rhea was not happy that Sushant was interested in organic farming. If he would have gone ahead with that plan, she would not have been able to promote her career after that''.

The senior advocate further added, “We do not have information as to where did ₹ 15 crores go that were withdrawn from Sushant Singh Rajput’s account. That will come out in the police investigation. His family never managed his finances. Sushant himself used to manage his finances, however, Rhea Chakraborty had hired the CA who was working for Sushant Singh Rajput. The money trail will be revealed in Police investigation and it will come out in the investigation where was the money and how was it being used”.
