Mumbai police find no evidence of foul play, close Disha Salian death probe

The Mumbai police have closed the probe into the death by suicide of Disha Salian, former media manager of the late Sushant Singh Rajput and several other actors. Salian died by suicide in June 2020, a week before the Sushant Singh Rajput took his own life.

The Indian Express newspaper quoted a senior police officer as saying, "Earlier this year, the investigating officer of the case, after investigating the matter for several months, sent a report to the assistant commissioner of police (ACP) for ‘final summary’ as he was convinced that there was no foul play in her death. The documents included the post-mortem report, inquest panchnama, house search panchnama and statements of her family members. The ACP then summarized the case."

Salian's death was registered with an accidental demise report (ADR), which was later investigated by the Mumbai police following several allegations that arose, particularly after Rajput's death. Rajput's death by suicide is now being probed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

The police observed that there was no evidence of foul play in Salian's death and that they had found no evidence to prove the allegations made on social media linking her death with Rajput's.
