Kangana Ranaut lauds 'SSR warriors'

Supreme Court verdict on CBI probe a historic event, says actress

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has hailed the Supreme Court order for a CBI probe into the Sushant Singh Rajput case. The actress said this was a historic day because so many controversial deaths have happened in the past but never in the history of India has a closed case been reopened.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday ordered a CBI probe into Sushant's death, and asked Mumbai Police to hand over all evidence collected so far to the investigating bureau.

"It's a historic day. So many controversial deaths have happened in the past but never in the history of India a closed case has opened and this movement was not just limited to India," Kangana said.

She said justice for Sushant, who was found dead on June 14 in his residence in Mumbai, is something that not only all of India wants. It has become a global movement.

"Indians all across the globe, whether it is Australia or America or Mauritius, sought justice for Sushant, with commendable leadership of resolve at the Centre. We the people of India, who have risen and awakened to the mafias that prevail in all fields. Whether it was Divya Bharti, Sridevi or many people who succumbed to these mysterious deaths, or Lal Bahadur Shastri or many leaders, these mafias prevail in all kind of fields," Kangana said.

The actress credits the collective consciousness of people that made this happen. "It's the victory of humanity," she said.

Earlier, Kangana took to social media shortly after the verdict to express joy over the Supreme Court ruling.

"Humanity wins, congratulations to each one of SSR warriors, first time I felt such strong force of collective consciousness, AMAZING #CBITakesOver," read a post in the official Twitter account of Team Kangana Ranaut.

Earlier this month, Kangana had shared a video demanding CBI probe into the death of Sushant. The video was published on social media, ahead of the Supreme Court hearing on the petition by Rhea Chakraborty seeking transfer of the FIR lodged by the family of the late actor from Patna to Mumbai.

"We want CBI for Sushant Singh Rajput. We deserve to know the truth," says the actress in a video published by her verified Twitter team, which goes by the name of Team Kangana Ranaut.
