Jiah Khan, who rose to fame with movies like Nishabd and Ghajini, died by suicide on June 3, 2013. Late British-American actress Jiah Khan's suicide is said to have occurred due to her relationship with actor Sooraj Pancholi who used to abuse her mentally and physically. Her mother Rabiya Khan has come up with new shocking revelations surrounding the issue. Check out the lesser-known details surrounding the case.
On June 3, 2013, Jiah's mother found her hanging in her Mumbai home. In her six-page suicide note, she accused her ex-boyfriend Sooraj Pancholi of pressuring her into taking such drastic action.
Sooraj Pancholi was detained by the Mumbai Police shortly after Jiah accused him, while on July 3, 2013, the Bombay High Court granted him bail. The Bombay High Court then forwarded the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in July 2014 to ascertain if it was a suicide or homicide case.
Sooraj was named as the main suspect in the case after the CBI issued a charge sheet in December 2015. He was detained by CBI for "abetment of suicide.",
