Kangana Ranaut to be summoned in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case

Mumbai : The Mumbai Police on Thursday issued a new summon to actress Kangana Ranaut in late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death case.

Earlier, the police had responded to Kangana's interview on Republic where she had claimed that the Mumbai Police had contacted her but did not record her statement.

According to the reports, Kangana Ranaut will be questioned by the Mumbai police only after she returns to Mumbai and not before that. 

Kangana had revealed that she never got a response from the Mumbai Police to record her statement in the case and questioned why they did not want to record her statement.

Kangana had also put allegations on the big production houses, talent agencies and a film critic and had stated that they control the Bollywood industry. Kangana even stated that some personalities of Bollywood do not talk politely to actors not agreeing with them - with such behaviour generally resulting in some form of systematic ostracisation and professional boycotting. Some of the persons named by Kangana Ranaut have indeed been summoned post the interview.

The Mumbai Police has questioned around 36 people in the Sushant Singh Rajput case, including big filmmakers like Aditya Chopra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, director Shekhar Kapur, critic Rajeev Masand, as well as actor and Sushant Singh Rajput's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty.

Meanwhile, Kangana's Twitter team also lashed out at reports stating that she was summoned before. They also shared a screenshot of a message Rangoli sent to Mumbai Police saying Kangana is ready to record her statement as she wants justice for Sushant Singh Rajput.

Sushant was found hanging in his apartment in Mumbai on June 14. He was said to be under stress and depression.
