Latest Update On Jiah Khan's Death: Mother Moves Supreme Court
This case of Jiah Khan's death has been stretching on since 2013 and there still hasn't been a final take of the apex court in the matter
Jiah Khan's death case has been going on since a really
long time. First it was declared a suicide, and later claimed by her mother,
Rabiya Khan, to be a murder. Various accusations have been levied on each other
by both the parties involved, and the courts are yet to give a final verdict as
to what actually happened on that fateful night. Here's the latest update on
the case:
Jiah's mother has moved the Supreme Court. She has filed
for a Special Leave Petition challenging Bombay High Court's order for further
investigation into Jiah’s death case.
Couple of weeks back, Rabiya had challenged CBI's charge
sheet terming the actress' death as suicide and not homicide, thus paving way
for trial to commence against actor Sooraj Pancholi in the case. Unfortunately
for her, the Bombay High Court had dismissed this plea as well.
For those who’ve come in late, Jiah was found hanging in
her Juhu apartment on June 3, 2013. Her boyfriend Sooraj was charged with
abatement to suicide under Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The
actor, who made his B-Town debut with Hero (2015), had pleaded not guilty in
the case.
Last year, Rabiya accused Sooraj of murdering Jiah. She
has demanded that Sooraj be charged with murder, rape and illegal medical
termination of pregnancy. In an exclusive interview to SpotboyE.com, Sooraj's
mother Zarina Wahab came to his defence and said, “Doesn’t she (Jiah’s mother)
fear God? Woh apni beti ki aatma ko dukh pahucha rahi hai. She is tarnishing
the reputation of the man her daughter loved. The law will take its course. I
have nothing more to say.”
Getting back to the current scenario, it will be
interesting to see if the Supreme Court also dismisses Rabiya's pleas like the
Bombay High Court, or will there be some new development?
