According to a report by India Today, doctor Harish Shetty said in his statement to the Mumbai Police that, “In 2014, Sushant Singh Rajput visited my clinic in Andheri. He did not have any prior appointment to see me. That time the clinic was crowded and lot of people were present inside. Sushant then told me that he couldn’t provide all the details of his ailment then and if needed he will come and see me again. He told me that he was suffering from sleeplessness and insomnia. So, I screened and examined Sushant and didn’t find any serious issues then. For sleeplessness and insomnia, I prescribed some medication and gave him a future date for appointment. He didn’t come on the next date and never communicated after that for treatment.”

The doctor further revealed that Sushant did not come for a follow-up appointment after that, he also opened up about his examination method, Shetty said, “While treating or examining any patient, I ask for detailed information from them. During primary examination, I ask them whether they have any suicidal thoughts. Whether they fear anything or have any kind of phobia. Whether they are getting proper sleep and if their appetite is normal. Only after that, as needed, I prescribe medicines to the patients. The patients are also asked to regular follow up visits. If required, I also refer them to other psychiatrists also.”

Rhea had opened up in her interview with India Today that Sushant had met Harish a few years back, “He said that 2013 mein unke saath ek depressive episode hua tha. He met a psychiatrist, jinka naam shayad Haresh Shetty tha. He said unhone yeh dawai unko prescribe ki thi. I started suspecting ki kya huwa. Are you unwell? That’s when he confessed to me that he met the psychiatrist in 2013 . He was okay after that. At times, he had anxiety attacks. But now he was feeling more anxious and depressed. So, we had to cut short the trip. If your partner was not feeling comfortable, what is the best thing to do? Bring him back.”

Meanwhile, Rhea Chakraborty and her family member are being interrogated by the CBI. They have already gone through multiple sessions of interrogation.
