Rahul Raj Singh Recounts Finding Pratyusha Banerjee Alive and Attempting CPR

His new interviews revisit the disputed 2016 death with personal claims and added detail but no fresh official conclusions.

Overview

  • In an interview first published by the Free Press Journal and echoed by other outlets, Singh says he reached the flat with a locksmith, saw Banerjee hanging, and rushed her to a hospital where he says he had already tried CPR.
  • He asserts that Banerjee was alive while being taken to the hospital, describing the scene and sequence in detail from the apartment to the emergency care.
  • Singh portrays Banerjee as struggling emotionally and alleges abuse by her father, presenting these as factors in her state before her death.
  • The official postmortem cited asphyxia, while Banerjee’s parents have long alleged murder and pressed charges against Singh, leaving the core dispute unresolved.
  • Singh says he was vilified, barred from her cremation, and in a new FPJ piece adds that he filed a defamation case against actress Kamya Panjabi over her accusations, which he claims lack evidence.
