Here’s all we know about the Jiah Khan death case
Actress Jiah Khan was found dead in her Juhu apartment in June 2013. Sooraj Pancholi son of actors Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab, was allegedly in a relationship with Jiah. Jiah’s mother Rabia Khan alleged that her daughter was murdered. She moved the High Court seeking a CBI probe.
Based on a letter seized on June 10, 2013, which was purportedly written by Jiah Khan, the Mumbai Police had booked actor Sooraj Pancholi. Sooraj was charged with abetment to suicide but later he was granted bail. On January 31, 2018, a Mumbai court officially charged Pancholi with abetting Khan’s suicide, under Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code.
Sooraj, in his final statement in the court, had claimed that the investigation and chargesheet were false. He further claimed that the prosecution witnesses had testified against him on the behest of complainant Rabia, police and CBI. He denied the charges and pleaded innocence.
Jiah Khan is known for her films like Nishabd with Amitabh Bachchan, Ghajini with Aamir Khan, Housefull with Akshay Kumar and more.
