Mumbai: Observing that there was some prima facie material against Sushant Singh Rajput s sister Priyanka Singh, the Bombay High Court on Monday refused to quash the FIR registered against her. She was booked for having forged a prescription and administering banned psychotropic drugs to her brother.
A bench of Justices Sambhaji Shinde and Makarand Karnik, however, quashed the FIR against Meethu Singh, another sister of the actor. There is some prima facie material on record. Thus, the FIR against Priyanka stands. However, the one against Meethu deserves to be quashed, the bench said while pronouncing their judgment.
