RHEA CHAKRABORTY vs THE STATE OF BIHAR

The Supreme Court granted the transfer petition filed by Rhea Chakraborty, allowing the transfer of the FIR related to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput from Patna to Mumbai. The court reasoned that the Mumbai Police had jurisdiction over the investigation due to the location of the incident and the petitioner being falsely implicated. The decision emphasized the need for a fair investigation in a case with significant public interest and media attention.
