Pratyusha Banerjee suicide: Rahul Raj's ex-lawyer lashes against him
Lawyer Neeraj Gupta, who had quit Pratyusha Banerjee's suicide case, took a press conference lashing against Rahul Raj Singh, Pratyusha's boyfriend.
During the conference, Rahul's ex-lawyer Neeraj made shocking revelations about him. "Rahul was partying with a girl at Bora Bora restaurant on March 31, the night before Pratyusha committed suicide. He even fought with the girl," said Neeraj.
He also added, "Rahul's modus operandi was to introduce actresses to drugs, con them and then dump them." "He did the same with Pratyusha Banerjee," said Rahul's ex-lawyer.
Neeraj also disclosed that Pratyusha was drinking heavily on April 1 morning, the day she died. "If Pratyusha was drinking since morning, how was she conscious to tie the noose and hang herself. There were injuries on her nose and cheekbones," informed Neeraj.
According to Neeraj, Rahul was earlier married to Sougata Mukherjee, an air hostess and has not got a divorce decree yet.
On April 1, the 24-year-old actress, who shot to fame for her role of Anandi in hit TV series "Balika Vadhu", allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself inside her flat at Goregoan area of western suburbs. Police are also trying to ascertain whether Pratyusha was in financial trouble or had any dispute with Rahul.
