CBI officer Seema Pahuja is reported to lead the agency’s investigation into the death of Disha Salian, described by outlets as linked to the period before actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. Salian dies on June 8, 2020, after a fall from the 14th floor of a residential building in Mumbai’s Malad area.
Multiple reports place Salian’s death shortly before Rajput’s death on June 14, 2020, which occurs in a Bandra flat. Outlets also note that Salian is connected to Rajput through her role as an ex-manager and the broader timeline of events in 2020.
Across the coverage, the emphasis centers on who is handling the case and the chronology of deaths in Mumbai in June 2020. The accounts referenced also frame the investigation as part of the wider matter involving Rajput’s death, while describing Salian’s death as a separate incident that investigators examine in the same broader context.
