00:00Satish Manishende, senior lawyer who also represented Rhea Chakravarty is now joining us.
00:06Thank you so much for your time. A very good evening.
00:08This news undoubtedly would come as music to your ears, sir,
00:13given the manner in which Rhea was investigated.
00:16She was also behind bars for a few days, if I'm not mistaken, for about a month or so almost.
00:22You know, talk to us about what you feel today with the CBI filing this closure report.
00:27Well, firstly, I congratulate the CBI officer who investigated this case thoroughly and
00:40judiciously because at the time when Rhea was on the trail, there was nobody supporting her.
00:48And all kinds of false narratives were spread throughout the media.
01:02It was uncalled for and ultimately the truth has prevailed.
01:09You know, what do you have to say about many who questioned Rhea's role in all of this,
01:13the fact that she was the one to provide drugs to Sushant Singh Rajput?
01:19She had nothing to do with what happened to Sushant Singh Rajput.
01:24She left the house six days before his suicide.
01:28So what can you even blame him? Blame her.
01:31You're not in contact with him.
01:34Anyway, now there's a closure report filed.
01:37There's nothing else to be discussed.
01:40You know, I also want to ask you, Mr. Mani Shinde, yes.
01:44Yes, you did say that.
01:45Why do you think that this matter, why do you think this entire issue
01:50was raised the way it was at that point in time, almost during the peak of the pandemic?
01:53I don't know. I can't say anything on this, but it was uncalled for.
02:00People were jobless during the pandemic and they got a chance to whip
02:07a false narrative and they did it.
02:09And good luck to the journalism and good luck to the media.
02:13Satish Mani Shinde, the family as well, has raised questions.
02:16As recent as just yesterday, the cousin of Sushant Singh Rajput
02:21has spoken about the fact that Disha Salian's father's made new revelations
02:24and that Sushant's case also must be relooked at, must be looked at again.
02:28I have nothing to say on that. I was concerned only with Priya Chakravarti's case.
02:32Understood.
02:33And after she got out on bail, she did not need a lawyer
02:38because she was totally innocent and ultimately the courts have come to her rescue.
02:42But the family also at some point in time has spoken about Priya Chakravarti
02:46and the fact that they were, in fact,
02:48looking at her as somebody who could be behind this mysterious death, so to speak.
02:53For the family, you can contact them. Thank you.
02:56All right. Satish Mani Shinde, I appreciate you joining us at that point in time.
02:58We heard from the lawyer of Priya Chakravarti,
03:02who was, remember, questioned in fact by the Narcotics Control Bureau.
03:07She was behind bars for 27 days.
03:10Satish Mani Shinde says for no fault of hers until the time she was released
03:15on bail by Justice Sarang V Kotwal, he has spoken about the death of Sushant Singh Rajput,
03:20saying that we are grateful to the CBI for having thoroughly investigated every aspect
03:26of the case from all angles and closed the case completely, is what Satish Mani Shinde has said.
