Now out on bail, Pratyusha’s boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh has hit back at those who levelled allegations against him and held him responsible for the actress’ death.
He says he plans to file a defamation case against actress Kamya Punjabi, producer Vikas Gupta and common friend Leena Dias, according to a Times of India report.
Singh has also filed a case against lawyer Neeraj Gupta for wrongly representing him as his lawyer, without any documents signed between the two parties.
He has tarnished my image. He accused me of pushing Pratyusha into drugs, hitting her and siphoning money from her. He also accused me of having no source of income and being a fraud. He was never my lawyer, but a self-appointed one. It’s his moral duty to not talk about his client in the media. Some others also accused me, saying they wanted to know the truth... but now, I am fighting back to know the truth. Where are they now? They are either attending parties or holidaying abroad. They gave statements at that time to hog the limelight.Rahul Raj Singh
Singh has also hit back at Kamya Punjabi who, he says, owed a significant amount of money to his girlfriend.
Kamya owes Pratyusha Rs 2.5 lakh. Pratyusha had even messaged her once asking for the money. Vikas claimed that he had a video of me slapping Pratyusha. I demand to see it. His claims of offering her work are also false. I plan to file a defamation case against him, Kamya, and Leena, who is my rakhi sister. Apart from me they have also tarnished Pratyusha’s image. Now, they will have to answer in court. I have full faith in the judiciary.Rahul Raj Singh
