Patna: The Bihar government has filed a caveat before the Supreme Courtchallenging actor Rhea Chakraborty's petition seeking transfer of the FIR registered in Patna to Mumbai, said Lalit Kishore, Advocate General, Bihar Government, here on Friday.
"Bihar government has filed a caveat before Supreme Courtchallenging actor Rhea Chakraborty's petition seeking transfer of the FIR registered in Patna to Mumbai. Lawyer Mukul Rohatgi has been engaged in the case," Kishore told.
When asked about whether the Patna Police is doing "is wrong" or not, in registering an FIR against Rajput's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, he said, "If we look at the statement given by Sushant's father minutely, then it is also within the jurisdiction of the Patna Police. The FIR that has been registered is correct.
Further slamming the lack of cooperation among the two police forces, he said that it was "unfortunate" that they were not "cooperating" with the police here.
"It has always been the case that whenever police from one state go to another state for investigation, then the respective state government and officials cooperate. In this case, it's unfortunate that they (Mumbai Police) are not cooperating," he further said.
