Mumbai: The CBI on Wednesday filed a chargesheet into the death of Bollywood actress Jiah Khan in which actor Suraj Pancholi is one of the prime accused.
According to the report published in TOI, Chargesheet described Khan’s abortion and Pancholi’s role in graphic detail. Sources revealed that Jiah Khan was four weeks pregnant and she informed about this to Pancholi. The couple approached Gynaecologist who gave medicine for abortion. But after taking abortion drug, Khan started haemorrhaging. She called Pancholi for help who in turn called Gynecologist for help. Gynaecologist asked him to rush Khan to hospital as the foetus had probably aborted but had not been expelled from the body. However, afraid of his relation being public, he decided to detach foetus and disposed it off in the toilet.

It is to be noted that US citizen Jiah, 25, was found dead at her Juhu apartment on June 3, 2013. Later, Suraj was arrested for ‘abetment to suicide’ on the basis of a six-page purported suicide note which was recovered.
The chargesheet came a fortnight after the sessions court asked for the status of the CBI’s investigation into the case after it was transferred to the central probe agency by the Bombay High Court last year.
Special Women’s Court Judge A.S. Shende had observed at a hearing on November 18 that though the CBI had completed its probe, the chargesheet was not filed in the case so far.
Prior to the CBI, Mumbai police which probed the matter said Jiah and Suraj were in a relationship. Later, the Bombay High Court granted him bail.
In his bail application, Suraj had contended that the two were in a consensual relationship and the letter purportedly penned by Jiah was allegedly being misused by her mother Rabiya.
In October 2013, Rabiya had petitioned the Bombay High Court alleging that her daughter was murdered and demanded a CBI probe into the matter.
Earlier, in January 2014, police in Juhu filed its 447-page chargesheet before the Andheri magistrate’s court and six months later, the case was transferred to the CBI.
Now when CBI filed its chargesheet, he said that now he have a chance to fight it out in court.
