Singh: the real reason for the FIR was some medicines that was being prescribed by his sisters but she has never taken that stand. She has not said she came to know about it in September. She admits she knew about it since June.
Singh: These medicines that she is referring to could have been referred to by then doctors through telemedicines as per the ICMR telemedicine guidelines.
Singh: The FIR is a counter case. The way she has listed the events points out chain of events pointing out soem other accused and then there are other events claimed which point out other accused. But then this is part of same investigation which is being conducted by CBI.
Singh: There seems to be no evidence against us. This is evident from the affidavit filed by CBI
Singh concluded his arguments.

Adv Satish Maneshinde begins his submissions on behalf of Rhea Chakraborty.
Maneshinde: I pointed out to his household help that he was mixing narcotic substances with the medicines that he was taking. It was going to be a dangerous cocktail.
Maneshinde: I was aware that he was taking medications and I had an altercation with him on that, but I was not aware of the prescription.
Maneshinde: When the prescription was leaked in social media, I realised it was on advice if his sisters. So I realised that it could be a cause of his suicide.
I have said in my complaint, that these medicines were prescribed by a doctor who had never prescribed him before.
I have said in my complaint, that these medicines were prescribed by a doctor who had never prescribed him before.
Maneshinde: They were prescribed without seeing him physically. Telemedicines can be prescribed only with prior consultation with the doctor.
Maneshinde: My complaint is in relation to a forged prescription of medicines. The circumstances that I am pointing out that should also be examined. His family is concerned with the cause if his death.
Maneshinde: So if this leads to finding answers, then what is the harm?
They say I am responsible, I am giving a different circumstances for investigation.
I had to approach the mumbai police because CBI is not a filing station.
Maneshinde concludes his submissions.
