Mumbai: After being criticised for its “slow pace” of investigation in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case, the Central Bureau Of Investigation (CBI) has issued its first statement to the media.
According to a Times Now report, the CBI statement said that the agency is “conducting a professional probe in the case. All the aspects are being investigated and no aspects have been ruled out yet”.
The investigating team also said that they haven’t given a clean chit to any suspect in the case.
Reacting to the statement, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy said the CBI needs to file an FIR on charges of murder and arrest the suspects.
“CBI has issued a media release which brings some transparency about what is going on. But CBI needs to do more than a media release about all possibilities. That is, need a FIR [or add to the Court transferred Patna FIR] with murder [IPC 302] as the crime, & arrest suspects,” tweeted Swamy.
