Swara Bhasker reacts to CBI probe in Sushant's case, criticism against Mumbai Police

Mumbai : Actor Swara Bhasker has come out defending the Mumbai Police, as well hoping for a fair investigation, with the CBI taking over the probe into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput.

Responding to the dSupreme Court’s decision Swara told Pinkvilla in an interview, “I don’t think it is fair to suggest that the Mumbai Police were not doing a good job or were not being professional. I think that there is a problem right there that we did not trust the Mumbai Police, we should have. We have no reason to doubt their conduct. I hope the CBI will now be allowed to do their job in a fair and impartial manner.”

“There is nothing new to add, I have said this before that the courts, the judicial system must be allowed to do their job, the police should have been allowed to do their job,” the actress further added.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court ordered a CBI probe into Sushant’s death.

Earlier, she had said about the debate around Sushant’s death, “Why is it so difficult for people to accept that he may have been depressed? I read an article where someone said that he didn’t look depressed, what theory is that? How can someone ‘look’ it?” She added, “Just because someone is famous, doesn’t mean things can’t be wrong. We as a society need to give more importance to mental health.”
