Jiah Khan's mother demands SIT probe, files petition in Bombay HC

Bollywood actress Jiah Khan's mother Rabia Khan on Thursday filed a petition in the Bombay High Court, seeking a Special Investigating Team (SIT) probe in her suicide case.

Earlier, she had filed a petition in the High Court against the Central Bureau of Investigation's report categorising Jiah's death on June 3, 2013, as suicidal and not homicidal.

Jiah's boyfriend-actor Sooraj Pancholi was arrested for abetting her suicide on June 10, 2013, but released on July 2 the same year after the High Court granted him bail.

Jiah Khan was found dead in her Juhu apartment in Mumbai on June 3, 2013.
