Bombay HC suspends CBI’s look-out-circular against Rhea Chakraborty

 The Bombay High Court did indeed suspend the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) look-out-circular (LOC) against actress Rhea Chakraborty on December 26, 2023. This allows her to travel abroad for a week-long promotional event in Dubai.

Here are some key points to remember:

• Reason for LOC: The LOC was issued by the CBI in relation to their probe into the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput in 2020. Chakraborty was investigated in the case but has not been charged with any crime.
• Court's reasoning: The High Court questioned the CBI's opposition to Chakraborty's travel request given that she hasn't been required for the investigation since September 2021 and no chargesheet has been filed. They also dismissed concerns about her being a flight risk, highlighting her established career and roots in India.
• Travel dates: Chakraborty is permitted to travel to Dubai from December 27, 2023, to January 2, 2024, to attend the event as a brand ambassador for a pet food company.

This development is significant for Chakraborty as it lifts a travel restriction that has been in place for over two years. While the investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput's death remains ongoing, this decision allows her to resume her professional commitments abroad.
