In the ongoing Sushant Singh Rajput death case investigation, it was being reported that the forensic team at AIIMS have found that the actor died by suicide. Sushant's family lawyer Vikas Singh, however, has claimed that he was informed by the same team that the late actor died by strangulation and not suicide.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been assigned to look into the case. However, with a drug angle finding, the Narcotics Control Bureau are currently probing people for a possible drugs angle in the case. They have also arrested actor Rhea Chakraborty, who was also Sushant's last girlfriend.
Singh shared that he is frustrated because one of the doctors from AIIMS had confirmed that the photos sent 200% indicated death by strangulation over suicide. Vikas tweeted, "Getting frustrated by the delay in CBI taking a decision to convert abetment to suicide to Murder of SSR. The Doctor who is part of AIIMS team had told me long back that the photos sent by me indicated 200% that it’s death by strangulation and not suicide."
Quoting his tweet, Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirit wrote, "We have been so patient for so long! How long will it take to find the truth? #SSRDeathCase."

The AIIMS is yet to submit their final findings report in the case. The CBI asked AIIMS to work on the case after Sushant's investigation was transferred to them on August 6. The team of AIIMS is looking at the autopsy done by Cooper Hospital on Sushant.
Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Bandra home on June 14, 2020. The actor, last seen in 'Dil Bechara', died under mysterious circumstances. Mumbai Police had previously declared he died by suicide but after an FIR by Sushant's father KK Singh, the case was transferred to CBI and they are yet to come to a conclusion around the case.
Currently, a few celebrities like Deepika Padukone, Shraddha Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan and Rakul Preet Singh have been summoned by the NCB in their Mumbai office in the ongoing Bollywood drugs nexus investigation which opened up while investigating Sushant's case. Rakul is currently grilled by the agency, while the others are expected to be interrogated on Saturday.
