Mumbai: A senior Mumbai police official has claimed that the IPS brother-in-law of Sushant Singh Rajput had asked him to call the actor's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty to police station and pressurise her.
Deputy Commissioner of Police Paramjit Singh Dahiya said that O P Singh, brother-in-law of Rajput and senior IPS officer of Haryana police, had made the request in February this year.

"Singh asked me to call Rhea Chakraborty to the police station informally and pressurise her," said Dahiya.
Dahiya said Singh told him that Rajput's family felt Rhea was "controlling" the actor and wanted her out of his life.
Dahiya said the actor's family did not submit a written complaint. He said O P Singh made the informal request (to pressurise Rhea) to him through WhatsApp messages on February 18 and 25.
The DCP said Singh visited Mumbai on February 5 and told him to inform Rajput that he was in Mumbai.

The DCP said he "politely and firmly" told Singh that it was not possible for him to call anyone to the police station and keep him in custody as it was against procedure.
Dahiya said he asked Singh to file a written complaint based on which the matter would be investigated. The written complaint never came, he added.
