"He was not provided accommodation in the IPS mess, despite request, and was staying in a Guest House in Goregaon," he said.

Last month, Rajput's father lodged an FIR here of abetment to suicide naming actress Rhea Chakraborty, said to be close to the deceased Patna-born actor, and her family members as accused.
