Maharashtra government on Friday filed a caveat in Supreme Court with a plea to be heard before a CBI probe is initiated in the death case of late Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput
After
Bihar
Police,
Maharashtra
government
on
Friday
filed
a
caveat
in
Supreme
Court
with
a
plea
to
be
heard
before
a
CBI
probe
is
initiated
in
the
death
case
of
late
Bollywood
star
Sushant
Singh
Rajput.
The
caveat
was
also
filed
in
response
to
actress
Rhea
Chakraborty's
plea
for
transfer
of
the
FIR
from
Patna
to
Mumbai.
Maharashtra
government
standing
counsel
Sachin
Patil
said,
"We
have
filed
a
caveat
in
the
Supreme
Court
in
actress
Rhea
Chakraborty's
transfer
plea."
Earlier
this
week,
Bihar
government
and
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
father
Krishna
Kishore
Singh
also
moved
the
top
court
(Supreme
Court)
and
filed
caveats,
in
an
attempt
to
ensure
that
Rhea
Chakraborty
does
not
get
the
relief
of
transfer
of
the
case
from
Patna
to
Mumbai.
On
Thursday
(June
30),
Rajput's
father
filed
the
caveat
through
lawyer
Nitin
Saluja
and
urged
the
court
that
"Let
nothing
be
done
in
the
above
matter
without
prior
notice
to
the
undersigned."
Hearing
Will
Be
Held
On
August
5
According
to
reports,
since
several
politicians
are
also
asking
for
a
CBI
probe
in
Sushant's
death
case,
a
quick
hearing
on
Maharashtra
government
caveat
is
set
to
be
held
on
August
5.
Supreme
Court
Dismissed
PIL
Seeking
A
CBI
Probe
In
The
Case
For
those
who
don't
know,
a
caveat
is
a
formal
notice
filed
by
an
interested
party
requesting
postponement
of
a
court
proceeding
or
other
action
until
the
filer
is
informed
or
can
be
heard.
In
July
Supreme
Court
has
already
junked
a
PIL
filed
by
Alka
Priya,
seeking
transfer
of
probe
into
Rajput's
death
case
from
Mumbai
Police
to
the
CBI.
Chief
Justice
SA
Bobde
said
that
the
Mumbai
Police
should
be
allowed
to
do
their
job
and
added,
"Go
to
Bombay
High
Court
if
you
have
anything
concrete
to
show."
