The Bihar police on Monday said both the local police and the accused in the alleged suicide of actor Sushant Singh Rajput want the same thing — transfer of abetment of suicide case to Mumbai from Patna. The allegations followed the 'forceful quarantine' of Patna City Superintendent of Police Vinay Tiwari hours after his arrival in Mumbai on Sunday. He had come to oversee the probe by his junior officers.

As the quarantine of Tiwari till August 15 derailed the Patna police's latest strategy in the case, Bihar Director General of Police (DGP) Gupteshwar Pandey conducted a high-level meeting at the police headquarters in Patna on Monday to decide the next course of action. Tiwari, who was heading the probe in Patna, was sent to Mumbai to supervise the Bihar police team conducting investigations into the abetment of suicide case. The case was filed in Patna following Rajput's father Krishna Kishore Singh's allegations that actor Rhea Chakraborty and her relatives transferred Rajput's money from his account into theirs.
