The Bombay high court on September 12 dismissed a petition by late actress Jiah Khan’s mother, seeking further investigation into Jiah’s death. Justices Ajay Gadkari and Milind Jadhav heard Rabia Khan’s (on the right in picture above) petition challenging the special CBI court’s order of September 2021, rejecting her plea to set up a special investigation team.
Actor Sooraj Pancholi is being tried for abetment to Jiah’s suicide on June 3, 2013. Rabia has claimed that her daughter was murdered.
During the hearing, the judges remarked that Rabia Khan was worsening her case by filing such a petition while the trial was on.
