Overview

  • Satish Salian has petitioned the Bombay High Court, alleging that his daughter, Disha Salian, was raped and murdered, and that a political cover-up protected influential individuals, including Aaditya Thackeray.
  • The petition calls for a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe and the registration of an FIR against Aaditya Thackeray, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader and former Maharashtra minister.
  • Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders, including Aaditya Thackeray and Sanjay Raut, have denied the allegations, calling them politically motivated attempts to defame the Thackeray family.
  • The case has reignited public and political discussions due to its proximity to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, which occurred six days after Disha Salian's death in 2020.
  • Critics of the Mumbai Police investigation claim it ignored critical evidence and prematurely classified Salian's death as accidental; a 2023 SIT probe yielded no significant findings.
