Candlelight march for Sushant, CBI probe sought into his death

Ludhiana: Members of a social organisation held a candlelight march to pray for Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput and demanded a CBI inquiry into his death. The group members said they would be handing over a memorandum to the deputy commissioner, Ludhiana, on Tuesday to be forwarded to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and home minister Amit Shah.
Convener of Ludhiana for Justice Front (LJF), Vineet Pal Singh Monga said death of the actor doesn’t appear to be a suicide case and seems to be murder. He added that there was nepotism in Bollywood, wherein families of stars who are established they were being promoted and those coming from small towns and cities are not allowed to rise.
LJF convener said it has come to fore that during the last some time, seven movie projects were taken away from the actor and as per a tweet he was ‘asked’ to work in serials only.
“We wonder how an actor who about a year ago would say that no one should commit suicide, would allegedly do it. We suspect that he was strangulated to death by forcibly holding him and then his body was hung from a ceiling fan. He was talented and was rising so they didn’t tolerate that,” said Vineet Pal Singh Monga. “We are going to give a memorandum to DC for Prime Minister and home minister, requesting for a CBI probe into the matter.”
Member of the group Jandeep Singh Toor said he had worked in Bollywood and he knew the ‘reality’ there. He alleged that nepotism that runs in Bollywood should be ended so that talented actors can rise.
