BJP leader Nitesh Rane
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nitesh Rane on Tuesday directed his attention towards Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray regarding the Disha Salian death case. Rane called upon Uddhav Thackeray, the Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Aaditya's father, to address this matter, stated a report in the news agency ANI.
It is noteworthy that Disha Salian served as the manager of the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
In his statement, Nitesh Rane pointed out an upcoming address by Uddhav Thackeray to workers at Shivaji Park. Rane referenced Sanjay Raut's statement, which suggested that it was a day for honesty, the report further added. He questioned whether Uddhav Thackeray, during his address, would reveal the truth about his son Aaditya Thackeray's involvement in the Disha Salian murder case. Rane further inquired if drugs were used at the party that took place before Disha Salian's tragic demise.
Nitesh Rane, characterising Aaditya Thackeray as a "drug addict" and a "rapist," confidently asserted that Aaditya would be incarcerated before the next Dussehra festival, he was further quoted saying.

"Only around two thousand chairs have been arranged at Shivaji Park, and it appears that the truth will be concealed during the address. The time has come to expose what Nitesh Rane refers to as the 'Ravaan,' in reference to Uddhav Thackeray. According to Rane, this upcoming Dussehra celebration will mark Aaditya Thackeray's final one before his impending incarceration. Furthermore, he mentioned that legal proceedings in this case will commence on December 6, underscoring his claims of Aaditya Thackeray's involvement in the Disha Salian case, asserting his involvement in both drug-related activities and a rape allegation."
Disha Salian met a tragic end on June 8, 2020, purportedly falling from a high-rise building in Mumbai's Malad area, just one week before Sushant Singh Rajput's life ended tragically by hanging in his residence. The Mumbai police had initially registered this incident as an accidental death case. However, suspicions surrounding the circumstances persisted.
Recently, the Thackeray scion moved the Bombay High Court seeking a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into his alleged connection with the deaths of Salian and Sushant.
