Mumbai: The Bihar Police team that went to interrogate Ankita Lokhande in the Sushant Singh Rajput case had a plush ride in store while leaving the residence of the actor. They got to return in her luxury Jaguar car.
It so happened that the police team was based at a location in Mumbai that was around three kilometres from Ankita's residence in Malad. Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, there were practically no cabs and autorickshaws available on the roads and the Bihar Police team reportedly had not received any vehicular assistance from Mumbai Police.
The report added that the Bihar police personnel, therefore, had to walk three kilometres to Ankita's residence. The interrogation lasted for about an hour, following which the actor offered her Jaguar to the cops, so that they did not have to walk back the long distance.

Sources said the police team had around 30 questions for Ankita. Details of what she said are yet to be revealed.
The four-member team has recorded statements of several people related to the case for the past three days, including Ankita and Sushant's sister but Rhea Chakraborty's whereabouts are unknown. The Bihar Police team also went to her flat on Thursday but she was not there.
A top police officer told IANS on condition of anonymity, "Nothing is happening anywhere. We are awaiting the order of the Supreme Court in this entire matter. Rhea has gone to the Supreme Court and her petition says that the case should be brought in the jurisdiction of Mumbai. Until the order of the Supreme Court comes, nothing can be done in this matter."
The officer, however, said that the Bihar Police team will continue to do its work in Mumbai, but it has faced many problems because it is not getting support from the Mumbai Police at all.
