It is alleged that Jiah continuously messaged Sooraj which infuriated him so he deleted her BBM account from his mobile and switched off the phone at 10.20 PM.<\/p>\n<p>The charge sheet alleged that Jiah tried to make contact with Sooraj and visited his bungalow.<\/p>\n<p>It claimed that she even called his cook but Sooraj asked him to convey that he was with his father Aditya Pancholi and could not take her calls, which was alleged to be a lie.<\/p>\n<p>It alleged that later he received a call from Jiah which lasted for 400 pulses in which there was again a heated exchange of words between the two. CBI alleged that he sent 10 messages to her in the night which were abusive and accusatory in nature.<\/p>\n<p>CBI has alleged that the three page note seized by Mumbai Police on June 10, 2013 was written by Jiah which narrated her intimate relationship, physical abuse and mental and physical torture allegedly experienced at the hands of Sooraj which led to her suicide.<\/p>\n<p>It alleged that the letter was not signed and even not addressed to Sooraj. However, evidence on hand incriminates Sooraj only. The charge sheet claims that according to experts the letter explains Jiah&#8217;s mental status and circumstances behind her extreme step.<\/p>\n<p>The board of forensic medicines opined death is suicidalin nature which corroborates post mortem done by Mumbai\u00a0 doctors.<\/p>\n<p>The charge sheet comes a fortnight after the sessions court here sought to know the status of CBI probe in the case after the Bombay High Court transferred it to them last year.<\/p>\n<p>On November 18, Special Women&#8217;s Court Judge A S Shende had noted that the probe agency (as per its earlier submission) had finished the investigations but &#8220;the charge sheet was still not filed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In October 2013, Rabiya had moved the Bombay High Court alleging that Jiah, her daughter, had been murdered and sought a CBI probe which was granted.<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?ssl=1\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-40334\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" data-attachment-id=\"40334\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/sooraj-pancholi-hid-facts-cbi\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?fit=620%2C350&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"620,350\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"jiah-khan-soorajpancholi\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?fit=620%2C350&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-40334\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?resize=300%2C169&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"jiah-khan-soorajpancholi\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.legalindia.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/12\/jiah-khan-soorajpancholi.jpg?w=620&amp;ssl=1 620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sooraj Pancholi, charge sheeted by CBI for allegedly abetting suicide of actor Jiah Khan, had hidden facts and fabricated information during questioning, the forensic analysis of his statements have indicated.The analysis, which is part of charge sheet filed by the agency in the suicide case of 26-year old Nafeesa Rizvi alias Jiah Khan, has &#8220;established [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40334,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1954,89],"tags":[34899,215,31987],"class_list":["post-40333","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-high-profile-cases","category-media-entertainment-news","tag-sooraj-pancholi-hid-facts","tag-cbi","tag-featured"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sooraj Pancholi hid facts: CBI - Legal News India - Supreme Court &amp; High Court Updates<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Sooraj Pancholi, charge sheeted by CBI for allegedly abetting suicide of actor Jiah Khan, had hidden facts and fabricated information during questioning, - Get the latest legal news from the Supreme Court, High Courts, and government.
