While K K Singh cited his age for filing the case in Bihar, Rhea moved the Supreme Court seeking transfer of the case to Mumbai. This led to Sushant's father, the Mumbai and Bihar police filing caveats, seeking to be heard first before any ex-parte interim order is passed.

The ED while registering a money laundering case against Rhea and her relatives cited the FIR by the Bihar police, which prima facie showed siphoning off of Rs 15 crore bellowing to the Rajpur family. In this connection, Rhea would be questioned by the ED.

The Bihar police filed the FIR against six others under Indian Penal Code Sections 106 (abetment to suicide), 341 (wrongful restrain), 342 (wrongful confinement), 380 (theft in dwelling house) 406 (criminal breach of trust) and 420 (cheating).

Sushant's father has alleged that Rs 15 crore in his son's account had gone missing. On June 6, less than a week before he allegedly committed suicide, Rhea had gone to his place and taken away many of his belongings, including cash, ATM card, important documents and his laptop.

Rhea, however in a video statement released through her lawyers denied the allegations and said that the truth shall prevail. I have faith in the judiciary and God she said and added that she believes that she will get justice.
