The controversial Jiah Khan's suicide case has taken a turn recently. Aspiring actor, Sooraj Pancholi has been charged with abetting the actress's suicide. Sooraj, who's the son of Bollywood actor Aditya Pancholi was in news during Jiah Khan's suicide due to his alleged closeness with the actress. Sooraj was also deemed as the potential reason behind Jiah's suicide. Now the news has it that Mumbai Police have filed a 500 page long charge sheet against Sooraj, who was the last person Jiah spoke to before her death. After Jiah's death, Sooraj got a few days arrest but in October last year, Bombay High Court ordered to further investigate the death mystery after Jiah's mother demanded a CBI probe, fearing that Jiah was murdered. There are 22 witnesses in the case, including a doctor who helped Jiah in an abortion, her building watchman, a florist, a servant at the Pancholi home and Sooraj's friends.Jiah hanged herself at her Juhu residence on June 3.Later, her mother, Rabiya, handed over a six-page letter she said was written by Jiah. The letter was about Jiah's suffering and her relationship with Sooraj.Arrested under Section 306 (abetment of suicide) of the IPC, Sooraj was released on bail by the Bombay high court.The high court noted that though there was a misunderstanding between Jiah and Sooraj, "it can not be said that on June 3, he had acted in any manner which could reflect a mens rea [intention] that he wanted her to commit suicide.In the absence of any mens rea, instigation or aid, it can not be said that [Sooraj] had driven her to commit suicide on that day". It said it could not ignore the fact that "Jiah had a suicidal tendency" and had previously tried to commit suicide.A police officer said there was evidence to establish Sooraj and Jiah were in serious relationship and the suicide happened after he refused to meet her on the day of the incident.Rabiya had suspected that Jiah had been killed, but the police did not find any evidence to support her claim.Meanwhile, Zarina Wahab, Sooraj Pancholi's mother has been giving statements in the media that the actor has zero association with the issue and all the allegations are fake. Sooraj Pancholi is expected to debut in Bollywood through remake of 1983 film, Hero.
