‘No BJP leader linked Aaditya to actor’s death’

The Hindu  

Bharatiya Janata Party legislator and Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Devendra Fadnavis on Friday said no BJP leader had “directly or indirectly” taken State Minister Aaditya Thackeray’s name in connection with the Sushant Singh Rajput case. It was Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut who had recently alleged a conspiracy to link Shiv Sena’s Mr. Aaditya, the son of Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, with the actor’s death. Earlier, Congress leader and spokesperson Sachin Sawant had tweeted a photo of Mr. Fadnavis with film producer Sandip Singh, whose name has figured in the investigation surrounding the actor’s murky death. Responding to Mr. Sawant’s demand, Mr. Fadnavis said: “Now that Sachin Sawant’s party is part of the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress MVA government, why weren’t these suspects questioned by the Mumbai police?
