Rahul Raj Singh, who is presently in dock for abetting the suicide of his girlfriend Pratyusha Banerjee, today looked quite disturbed as he attempted to downplay the allegations levelled against him by the late actress' friends and family members.

Rahul, who arrived at the Bangur Nagar Police station in an ambulance, was all in tears when posed questions by the media about the latest allegations against him.

"Bring Pratyusha back. Can you? Can you bring Pratyusha back?" he said.

Rahul, who was booked by the Bangur Nagar Police for abetting Pratyusha's suicide, got some relief from Bombay High Court yesterday.

The High Court, which heard Rahul's pre-arrest bail plea, retrained the police from arresting him on a surety of Rs. 30,000 and directed him to attend the police station everyday till April 18.

After the 24-year-old 'Balika Vadhu' actress allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself in her flat in suburban Goregaon on April 1, a case under Sections 306 (abetment of suicide), 504, 506 (criminal intimidation), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the IPC was registered against Rahul on April 3 following a complaint lodged by the actress' parents.
