Aaditya Thackeray On DIsha Salian Allegations: Don’t Give A Dime

Mumbai:

Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray today said he “doesn’t give a dime” on allegations linked to the death of Bollywood agent Disha Salian, who was actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s talent manager.

A BJP leader has demanded a narcoanalysis test on the former Maharashtra minister, questioning why his name is linked to the death of Disha Salian.

“I don’t give a dime on these allegations. Clearly, this government fears a 32-year-old youth,” Aaditya Thackeray told NDTV.

Disha Salian allegedly died by suicide on June 8, 2020, after falling 14 floors. A week later, on June 15, Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide, leaving the nation in shock.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis yesterday said a Special Investigation Team (SIT) would investigate the Disha Salian death and appealed to the public for evidence.

Questions and theories swirling around the deaths, which set social media on fire, came back into the spotlight this week as members of the ruling Eknath Shinde-BJP coalition demanded an investigation and targeted the Shiv Sena of Uddhav Thackeray and his son Aaditya.

On Tuesday, Eknath Shinde’s party MPs raised Disha Salian’s death in Lok Sabha. Later, the subject was raised in the Maharashtra assembly.

Aaditya Thackeray said Chief Minister Eknath Shinde’s MLAs were pressing the subject to shield him from corruption allegations raised by the opposition.
