On Tuesday, more than a month after Tunisha Sharma’s death, her family went to meet the Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs. Tunisha’s mother Vinita Sharma appealed to run her daughter’s suicide case in a fast track court.
Along with Tunisha’s mother and maternal uncle, BJP leader Kirit Somaiya and Vasai Virar Police Commissioner Madhukar Pandey also came to meet the Home Secretary.
The entire team probing the matter submitted the report to the secretary. Vineeta Sharma again said that this investigation should be expedited and even though Sheejan has been investigated, the involvement of her family should be probed.
BJP leader Kirit Somaiya said that the deputy chief minister, who is also the home minister of the state, is looking into the matter, has assured justice, and the chief minister has also been asked to extend all possible cooperation.
Speaking about the love-jihad angle, Vinita Sharma said that it cannot be ruled out and as the investigation progresses, the matter will be brought to the fore.
Let us tell you that Tunisha (21), who was last seen in the TV serial Ali Baba: Dastan-e-Kabul, was found hanging in the washroom on the sets of the serial near Vasai in Palghar district of Maharashtra on December 24, 2022 . Khan and Tunisha have featured in a few television serials and were said to be in a relationship which reportedly ended a few weeks ago after Tunisha was found hanging on the production set of the show.

Sheejan Khan (28) was arrested the next day for allegedly inciting the mob. He is currently lodged in Thane jail. He moved the Bombay High Court seeking bail and quashing of the case. In his petitions, Khan said that relationships and break-ups are normal aspects of life and hence he cannot be held responsible for Tunisha’s death.
