Bhubaneswar: Senior Odisha-cadre IPS officer Amitabh Thakur has demanded a probe into the death of the young Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
The 1998-batch officer in a tweet on Tuesday wrote: “Am pretty sure he can’t do this. He used to pen down everything, and why would he not leave a note..had pomegranate juice in the morning…c’mon not believable. Needs probe (sic).”
Having known @itsSSR for a long time now, am pretty sure he can’t do this. He used to pen down everything, and why would he not leave a note..had pomegranate juice in the morning…c’mon not believable. Needs probe @opsinghips @arunbothra #SushanthSinghRajput @shekharkapur

Thakur had earlier shared a rare and unseen picture of the actor, who is a close relative, in his teens at the former’s wedding.
On Monday, another Odisha-cadre IPS officer Arun Bothra had countered senior journalist Rajdeep Sardesai’s statements, questioning the reason for launching an investigation into the death. He had pointed out that Section 174 of CrPC mandates an enquiry into every unnatural death. The law has this responsibility towards the dead, he tweeted.

Doesn’t the family deserve to know the actual reasons behind the unfortunate incident. Or should they be satisfied with conclusions arrived at by news anchors? https://t.co/ADAOLhftDG
