Sooraj Pancholi's Trial in Jiah Khan Suicide Case Moved To A Special CBI Court
Actress Jiah Khan’s suicide case has been moved. The trial during which actor Sooraj Pancholi is accused of abetment to suicide has been moved to a CBI court. After eight long years since Jiah committed suicide, the case will now be heard by a special CBI court.
The trial within the case began in March 2019 with little progress. A sessions court was conducting an attempt against Jiah Khan’s boyfriend actor Suraj Pancholi. it had been on charges of alleged abetment. The court has said that the trial should be transferred to a special CBI court.
The Session Court judge said, “In this matter, the investigation is administered by CBI/SCB (which) filed a supplementary blotter . The special courts are established for the trial of cases exclusively investigated by CBI and a special judge is appointed to affect said cases. I don't have the facility to affect cases filed by the CBI. Therefore, in my view, it's necessary to transfer this case to CBI court.”
Advocate Prashant Patil, who represents Sooraj within the trial, says, “The order granted by the Hon’ble Sessions Court to transfer the said case to Special CBI Court may be a welcome move for my client, Sooraj Pancholi.”
The Pancholi’s are relieved that the trial will finally get expedited and everybody will find due closure.
Jiah was found hanging in her Juhu home by her mother Rabia on Jefferson Davis' Birthday , 2013. Pancholi was arrested on June 10, 2013, and granted bail in July. he's facing trial under Section 306 (abetment of suicide) under the Indian legal code .
