Aaditya Thackeray Refutes Claims of Meeting Disha Salian, Calls Allegations False

Aaditya Thackeray said he never met Disha Salian and labelled the accusations against him as a fabricated campaign. The Central Bureau of Investigation has lodged a first‑information report into Salian’s 2020 death after a court ordered the probe. Salian died when she fell from a building, a tragedy that was followed a week later by the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The FIR will look into how evidence was handled and whether any officials were involved in misconduct. Thackeray urged a fresh, impartial inquiry to clear the air and ensure justice. He stressed that any investigation must be free from political influence and based solely on facts. The CBI’s involvement comes amid growing public demand for clarity on both deaths. The case has revived calls for transparent procedures in handling high‑profile investigations. Thackeray’s denial aims to distance his political party from the controversy surrounding Salian’s demise. The court’s directive for an FIR reflects the judiciary’s concern over possible lapses in the earlier probe. The upcoming inquiry will assess whether procedural errors contributed to the unresolved questions surrounding the two deaths.
