Yesterday
(August
19,
2020),
was
a
big
day
for
late
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
family
and
his
fans,
as
the
Supreme
Court
ruled
in
their
favour
and
ordered
CBI
inquiry
in
the
Raabta
actor's
case.
Now,
KK
Singh
has
released
a
statement
declaring
himself
as
the
legal
heir
of
Sushant
and
barring
anyone
from
representing
the
actor.
KK
Singh
said
in
the
statement,
"It
is
hereby
declared
that
I
am
the
legal
heir
of
late
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
and
in
that
capacity,
any
arrangement
that
Sushant
had
during
his
lifetime
for
the
engagement
of
any
lawyer,
Chartered
Accountant
and
other
professional
came
to
an
end
upon
the
death
of
Sushant
and
thereafter
no
lawyer,
Chartered
Accountant
or
other
person
is
entitled
to
represent
the
estate
of
Sushant
without
my
express
consent."
He
further
added,
"They
have
talked
on
media
about
the
alleged
privileged
communication
between
Sushant
and
them.
Clearly
such
disclosure
is
barred
by
section
126
of
the
Indian
Evidence
Act,
1872
and
the
Bar
Council
of
India
Rules
[Rule
17,
Part
VI,
Chapter
1ft,
without
my
consent
as
I
am
representing
the
estate
of
Sushant.
I
have
not
given
any
consent
to
anyone
of
them
to
either
continue
to
represent
Sushant
or
disclose
any
communication
barred
by
section
126
of
Evidence
Act,
1872."
He
also
made
it
clear
that
apart
from
him,
only
his
daughters
comprise
the
family
of
Sushant,
and
no
one
else
has
the
right
to
claim
themselves
as
Sushant's
family.
"We
have
authorized
Varun
Singh
(SKV
Law
Offices,
Commercial)
as
our
Advocate
and
through
him
Vikas
Singh,
Sr.
Advocate,
to
represent
the
family.
Any
other
person
claiming
himself
to
be
family
member
does
not
have
my
consent," concluded
Singh.
Meanwhile,
many
celebrities
including,
Akshay
Kumar,
Kangana
Ranaut,
Parineeti
Chopra,
Kriti
Sanon,
Neil
Nitin
Mukesh,
Ranvir
Shorey,
Shakti
Kapoor
and
Shekhar
Suman
welcomed
SC's
verdict
and
expressed
their
gratitude
on
Twitter.
