Jiah Khan’s case

Jiah Khan was only 25 when she was discovered dead in her Mumbai home on June 3, 2013. On June 10, 2013, the Mumbai Police detained the actor following the discovery of a letter that Jiah had allegedly written in which she claimed that Sooraj had mistreated her physically and mentally. In July 2013, bail was granted to Sooraj.

A key witness for the prosecution in the case, Jiah’s mother, Rabia Khan, testified in court that she suspected it was murder rather than suicide. “The verdict is on an alleged suicide, but I’ve always insisted Jiah was killed,” she said.

Jiah’s mother, Rabia Khan, declared that she would keep battling for her child. After the decision, she stated, “The charge of aiding suicide has been dropped. My child died, but how? This is a murder case, and we’re going to the high court,” she said.
