Jiah Khan SUICIDE CASE: Mother & Lawyer’s ABSENCE From First Hearing Raises Questions
Last evening, the first hearing of Jiah Khan’s suicide case was scheduled. While Sooraj Pancholi arrived at the court, Jiah’s mother, Rabiya Khan and her lawyer didn’t turn up...
Jiah Khan’s suicide case is among Bollywood’s most
controversial and still unsolved cases.

Yesterday was its first hearing BUT unfortunately nothing
culminated from it.
Reason- Jiah Khan’s mother and her lawyer’s absence from
the court.
Although the trial began in the sessions court, where
Sooraj was present, but Rabiya Khan, who had made allegations against the
actor, was conspicuous by her absence at the hearing.

According to DNA, a source close to Sooraj said, “The
case was getting delayed each time. It’s been almost five years and nothing was
progressing. So, the actor and his lawyer Prashant Patil requested the court to
frame the charges so that the hearings would begin. Time and again, Rabiya
(Khan) has been delaying the whole case. On Wednesday, although Sooraj and
his lawyer reached the court for the hearing, neither Rabiya nor her lawyer was
present.”
Rabiya’s absence from the hearing has raised quite a few
questions. According to the report, in accordance with the law, if Rabiya isn’t
present for the second hearing next Wednesday, a bailable warrant will be
issued against her. If she doesn’t turn up even after that, a non-bailable
warrant will be issued to produce Rabiya in court.
Sooraj Pancholi
Jiah Khan’s suicide in June 2013 left the nation and the
industry in shock. The late actress’ then-boyfriend Sooraj Pancholi has been
charged under section 306 (abetment of suicide) of the Indian Penal Code.
Sooraj has pleaded not guilty.
The next hearing is now on February 21.
