Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14, 2020 at his rented apartment in Mumbai. It has been two years since then but the mystery around his alleged suicide is still afresh. Although, investigation termed the death as `suicide`, fans and family had been claiming foul play and demanded that justice be served. An employee who witnessed the autopsy of the actor made a shocking claim suggesting that the actor did not commit suicide and was, in fact, murdered.
Roopkumar Shah, who was present at Sushant Singh Rajput`s postmortem, said, "When Sushant Singh Rajput passed away, we had received five dead bodies in the Cooper Hospital for postmortem. Out of those five bodies, one was a VIP body. When we went to perform a post mortem, we learnt he was Sushant and there were several marks on his body and two to three marks on his neck as well. The postmortem needed to be recorded but higher authorities were asked to only click pics of the body. Hence, we did that as per their order."
The 34-year-old actor was found dead in his apartment in Bandra on June 14, 2020. Starting with the Mumbai Police, Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) were brought in to investigate various angles in the actor’s death. Later, the authorities ruled his death as a suicide.
