Jiah Khan death row: Mother Rabiya Khan equipped with fresh evidences, moves Bombay HC

It’s going to be almost a year when Bollywood actress Jiah Khan met an untimely demise. Her mother Rabiya Khan is still fighting for justice and in the process she conducted a sting operation. Her lawyer has claimed that they have now "recorded conversations of the witnesses" which indicate Jiah didn’t commit suicide. Rabiya has also moved the Bombay High Court once again.

Rabiya has claimed that her daughter was murdered and she wants a Special Investigating Team to look into the case. Her lawyer Dinesh Tiwari said, "We have recorded conversations of the witnesses and it is different from the statement recorded by the police. For the last four months, we have been doing investigation and sting operation personally. The result in the material collected by us indicates it is not a case of suicide.” "The injury marks indicate it cannot be a case of suicide and nobody has any explanation on this. Now the current status is that we have filed a petition in the high court," he added further.
On June 3, 2013 Jiah was found hanging in her Juhu apartment in late night. Based on the FIR, the police arrested Aditya Pancholi and Zareena Wahab’s son Suraj Pancholi over charges of abetment but later he was granted bail. Now Rabiya’s fresh allegations have angered Aditya a lot. He said, "Although she is trying really hard to damage my family, I feel sorry for her. I think she needs psychiatric help, urgently.” He continued saying, "Everyone realises she is raving and ranting against my son for no fault of his. I can empathize with her grief as a parent. But I can't understand how any sane person can go to such ridiculous lengths just to get even with me and my family." He also shared that Rabiya may be getting help from someone in her campaign. He said, "She can't be carrying on this nonsense on her own. There are elements supporting her ugly smearing campaign against my son. But I cannot expose them until I have evidence.” "At the same time I am not going to allow Rabia to carry on this relentless hate campaign against my son. His only crime is that he fell in love with a girl from an unstable background...." he added. He also said, "Instead of trying to destroy my son's life with completely nonsensical allegations, she (Rabia) should focus on looking after her two remaining daughters." "In her heart of hearts she knows my boy is completely innocent. But in her wild desire to seek compensation for her daughter's death she seems to have lost her mental equilibrium," he added.
