In a significant development in the 2023 death case of a Bhojpuri film actor, the Allahabad High Court has issued notices to Bhojpuri singer Samar Singh and his brother Sanjay Singh. This follows a petition from the actor's mother, who is demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) inquiry, alleging that her daughter was murdered rather than having taken her own life. The actor was found dead in a hotel room in Sarnath, Varanasi on March 26, 2023, and the initial police investigation classified the case as a suicide. However, the actor's family has raised concerns about the investigation's integrity. The court has also ordered the local police to submit a counter affidavit by May 22. The case gained public attention after videos surfaced online showing the actor appearing emotional shortly before her death. Samar Singh and his brother were previously arrested on charges related to the case but were released on bail. The hearing is set to continue as the court seeks to clarify the circumstances surrounding the actor's death.
