Maharashtra Cabinet Minister of State Sambhuraj Desai has said that the Bihar police cannot investigate Sushant Singh Rajput's death case in Maharashtra without permission. He stressed that they will have to inform the Mumbai Police.

The Maharashtra government reiterated that the question of handing over the case to the CBI does not arise. For the uninitiated, Maharashtra Home Minister had a meeting in the same matter, which is where they concluded that no CBI probe is needed in the matter since the Mumbai Police is efficient in handling the case.

In a special conversation with Zee Media, Desai said that the Mumbai police informed them that Sushant Singh Rajput's family had not named anyone while filing FIR with the Bihar Police. He also said that the Mumbai police is questioning people associated with the matter, mainly from Bollywood, also adding that the case is going in the right direction.

Meanwhile, Rhea Chakraborty has filed a petition to the Supreme Court that the investigation in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case should be transferred to the Mumbai Police. Sushant's family has also filed a caveat with the court to not allow the actress' petition to be heard in the court.
