The Malwani police have sent a notice to Union minister Narayan Rane and his son Nitesh Rane, an MLA, to appear before them this week to record statements in an FIR registered against the duo for allegedly making defamatory remarks and spreading false information about late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s former manager Disha Salian’s death.
A senior police officer said: “The notice is served by the investigating officer under CrPC asking them to be present before the police station.”
The remarks in question were made by Narayan Rane during a press conference on February 19 in the presence of Nitesh Rane.
According to police, Salian died by suicide by jumping off a building on June 8, 2020, six days before Rajput was found dead inside his Bandra home.
