CBI Registers FIR in Celebrity Manager Disha Salian Death Case
The agency acted after the Bombay High Court cited glaring discrepancies and said police had treated the case as an accidental death for six years.
- On Monday, September 14, 2026, the Central Bureau of Investigation registered an FIR in connection with the death of Disha Salian, former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, following a Bombay High Court directive.
- The Bombay High Court criticized Mumbai Police for treating the case as an Accidental Death Report for six years, citing "glaring discrepancies" in the investigation that prompted the CBI intervention.
- Salian died on June 8, 2020, after falling from the 12th floor of a residential building in the Malad area of Mumbai, an event that preceded her former client Rajput's death by six days.
- Rajput was found dead in his apartment on June 14, 2020, sparking speculation about a link between the two deaths that led the Maharashtra government to order the CBI probe into both cases.
- Although the CBI previously submitted a closure report stating Rajput died by suicide, that report remains pending before the court, keeping investigative questions open as the new Salian probe advances.
