Nearly a month after late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty called for a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into Sushant Singh Rajput's death, Sushant's father has filed a complaint against Rhea for abetting the actor's suicide.

Alleging Rhea of cheating him financially and mentally harassing him thus leading to his depression, Sushant's father KK Singh, who lives in Patna, has filed the complaint. "FIR registered against actor Rhea Chakraborty under various sections, including abetment of suicide, on the complaint of #SushantSinghRajput's father: Sanjay Singh, Inspector General, Patna Central Zone," a news agency confirmed. This is the first time Sushant's family has gone public with any accusations regarding the actor's suicide. Rhea had earlier called for a CBI enquiry into Sushant's death. "Respected @amitshahofficial sir , I’m sushants Singh Rajputs girlfriend Rhea chakraborty, it is now over a month since his sudden demise . I have complete faith in the government , however in the interest of justice , I request you with folded hands to initiate a CBI enquiry into this matter .

A case has reportedly been registered against Rhea and her family under section 306 (abetment to suicide), section 340 and section 342.
