Pratyusha Banerjee's parents write to Rajnath, seek CBI probe

Mumbai, May 9: Television actor Pratyusha Banerjee's parents on Monday wrote to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and demanded a CBI probe into their daughter's death.

In the letter Pratyusha's parents have pointed out several instances that they claim have been missed by the police officials that point towards a murder and not suicide.

In the letter (obtained by ANI), her parents have written: "In the report it was revealed that no stool or a high object was found from her room on which Pratyusha could stand and hang herself from the ceiling fan. This clearly shows that police office have investigated the case in a hurry and have termed a murder as 'suicide'."

Meanwhile, Pratyusha's boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh alleged that the actress was mentally tortured by her parents. Rahul alleged that all accounts were never in Pratyusha's name but were in her mother's name.

"If I was after Pratyusha's money where is that money? The money must have been deposited in my account and I am ready to get all my accounts checked," he said. He even alleged that the actress bore all the expenses and that her parents had taken a loan in her name.

Pratyusha's parents on the other hand have blamed Rahul for their daughter's death. They had earlier written to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis requesting for a probe by Mumbai Police Crime Branch into her death.
