Suraj Pancholi and Jiah Khan
Suraj Pancholi and Jiah Khan

I was away for a few days but just got word there have been a few developments on the Jiah Khan suicide and Suraj Pancholi arrest since our last report so I thought I should fill you in…

For starters Aripta Khan (Salman Khan‘s little sister) took to twitter to voice her displeasure that Bhai’s name was being dragged into the case.

Salman Khan himself was reportedly upset about it too and rubbished all rumours of advising Suraj on his private life. Salman said that he was never asked by Suraj’s father Aditya Pancholi to intervene in his son’s relationship and that his name is unnecessarily being used in this case. He also said that he sympathises with Jiah’s bereaved family, but the charges framed by Jiah’s mother against him were absurd.

As of now Suraj is being detained by the police till June 27th on charges of abetment of suicide as a result of the allegations in Jiah Khan’s suicide note.

Today on Twitter I also discovered this blog called “standup4sooraj” that claims the suicide note released to the police and the press was fake and not written by Jiah at all. Oddly enough, the blog first showed a comparative between her alleged suicide note and a signed letter previously written to Suraj, both images seem to have been removed since I last checked, not sure why… but I did find this on Daily Bhaskar for you to take a look at.

Apparently this (above) is a copy of a love letter Jiah previously wrote Suraj. While the handwriting appears to be more slanted they both look like they were written on paper from the same notebook based on the marking on the dairy pages. See? (Below a copy of Jiah’s alleged suicide note found three days later by her sister amongst Jiah’s belongings.)

What do you make of it?
