CJI SA Bobde led bench to hear Sushant Singh Rajput's sister Priyanka's appeal against Bombay High Court order which did not quash Rhea Chakraborty's FIR against her where it was alleged that Singh along with Dr. Tarun had administering banned medicines to #SushantSinghRajput

Challenging an FIR registered on the basis of this complaint before the Bombay High Court, Priyanka Singh had claimed that the FIR was lodged to “concoct a whole new story entirely different from the statements made” by Chakraborty before the Supreme Court and media platforms.

However, Bombay HC had held "There is prima facie case found against Priyanka Singh and there should not be any impediment against investigation against her."

The appeal states that "by limiting the meaning of medical negligence and carving out an exception which involves the skill set essential for performing a doctor’s job could cause fear across the country."

"The doctors in future would not be free to prescribe medicine knowing fully well that such activity is notfree from criminal prosecution," says Singh in her appeal.

Senior Adv Vikas Singh: Priyanka had withdrawn Section 306. No illegal medicines were prescribed.

CJI: We are not inclined. Dismissed
