New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday has dismissed a petition seeking transfer of Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The apex court observed that the police should be allowed to do their job and it has nothing to do with whether a person was good or bad, it is about the jurisdiction. The petition was filed by Alka Priya.
