    Tunisha Sharma death: Sheezan Khan's lawyer says the actor is at risk of suicide, his sisters criticize media for maligning him

    In Tunisha Sharma ’s death case, accused Sheezan Mohammed Khan ’s lawyer has demanded a mental counselor and security in jail. Recently, his lawyer stated that the actor’s mental condition is not stable after a fellow detainee committed suicide in jail. The lawyer indirectly said the actor is at risk of suicide hence he should not be left alone. Also, Sheezan’s sisters Falaq Naaz and Shafaq Naaz are upset with the media trial that has maligned their brother.

    In a joint statement, Sheezan’s sisters questioned the people who are demeaning Sheezan in the name of religion and influence from previous events. "It breaks our heart how our silence has been understood as weakness. This is probably what they call 'Ghor Kalyug'. Where's the research of some media portals before reporting things? Where's the common sense of the masses? For all the people demeaning Sheezan - ask yourself this - are you talking based on the situation, or are you talking out of hate for a religion? Or are you talking out of influence from previous events? Stay woke, people!"

    Further, they stated that some random people are claiming to be their acquaintances for fame. "The journalism standards of a certain section of media have stooped so low that it only functions based on TRP. And you are their consumer. It's equally your responsibility to report news with unreliable sources. Don't be fooled... we also notice, and are very thankful for the masses as well as media portals who are able to see through the false narratives - we need more people like you. But all in all, it's so upsetting to see these people relentlessly malign Sheezan this way. From making up stories to dragging religion into the matter and random people claiming to be our acquaintances for their 15-minute fame. This situation has really revealed how some humans can get to defame someone. God bless Tunisha, and hope she's in a better place now," concluded the joint statement.

    Tunisha was found hanging on December 24 on the sets of her TV show Ali Baba Dastaan-E-Kabul. Following this, Sheezan, who happened to be her co-star and ex-boyfriend, was arrested on charges of abetment to suicide. The two broke up 15 days before her untimely death.
