Actor Rhea Chakraborty, who is in the centre of the investigations in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case, has posted a video on Instagram showing her father being mobbed and chased by mediapersons outside their house in Mumbai. The actor sought protection for her and her family from Mumbai Police so that the family can co-operate with the probe agencies.

"This is inside my building compound, The man in this video is my father Indrajit Chakraborty (retired army officer). We have been trying to get out of our house to cooperate with ED , CBI and various investigation authorities to cooperate," Ms Chakraborty wrote, along with the video shot from what appears to be a grilled window upstairs.

The video shows a man in white shirt and a cap, getting out a black car, only to be surrounded and grilled by television crews waiting outside the building. The man is seen rushing inside the building.

In the media melee, no coronavirus restrictions such as social distancing were followed.

"There is a threat to my life and my family's life," Ms Chakraborty, 28, wrote, adding that the family has not received help from the police.

After her appeal for protection, policemen were seen outside the actor's home.

Rhea Chakraborty's father was escorted out of their home by Mumbai Police personnel this afternoon after he was summoned by the Enforcement Directorate. He was then taken to a branch of Axis Bank branch in Mumbai's Santacruz by the police.

Soon after sharing her father's video, Ms Chakraborty posted a video of a watchman of her residential complex. "Today, the mediawallahs came. They harassed and hit me. I have been injured. I have children at home and I'm unable to go home," the watchman, who identified himself as Ram, said.

Earlier today, Ms Chakraborty's brother Showik arrived at the DRDO guest house in Mumbai for questioning by the CBI which has taken over the probe into Sushant Singh Rajput's death.

A drug-related investigation too has been launched against Ms Chakraborty based on WhatsApp chats retrieved from her mobile. Sushant Singh Rajput's father accused Rhea Chakraborty - who dated the actor in his final months - of "poisoning his son".

Mr Rajput's father had also accused Rhea Chakraborty of mentally harassing the actor, taking his money and driving him to suicide.
