The top court today asked the Mumbai police to hand over all evidence collected so far to the investigating agency. The court also said the FIR registered in Bihar based on the complaint filed by Sushant Singh's father was correct and Bihar was competent to ask the CBI to investigate the case.
A number of Bollywood celebrities had sought a CBI investigation into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, with many of them using the hashtag "CBIforSSR" on social media.
Mr Rajput's former girlfriend Ankita Lokhande, who too had demanded a CBI probe into his death, tweeted, "Justice is the truth in action. Truth wins."
