Sushant Singh Rajput case: Mumbai cops to probe Congress complaint of Twitter campaign

The Congress in Maharashtra on Wednesday requested Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh to investigate what it called a “BJP-driven social media terrorism” aimed at defaming the state government and police in connection with actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case.

A senior police officer later said they are conducting an inquiry after state Congress spokesperson Sachin Sawant submitted a complaint in this regard.

Leaders of the ruling Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress have stepped up their attack on the BJP since an AIIMS medical panel ruled out “murder” in Rajput’s death, which is currently probed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
