The Bombay High Court has reportedly directed a lower court to proceed with the trial against Sooraj Pancholi, who was accused for abetting the suicide of his then girlfriend, Jiah Khan in 2013.
Jiah’s mother Rabia Khan has been consistently claiming that her daughter did not commit suicide, but was murdered by Sooraj. According to a report in BL, she petitioned the court seeking a Special Investigation Team to be set up to probe the case as she felt that the police was not probing it properly and was not satisfied with CBI’s investigations either.
The high court has posted Rabia’s petition for hearing on September 11 and stated that the trial can go on against the accused.
