Pratyusha Banerjee suicide: Rahul Raj Singh tells police he knew about actress' pregnancy

New Delhi: In a startling twist, television actress Pratyusha Banerjee's alleged suicide has become a mystery waiting to be unfold. On April 19, several reports suggested that the Balika Vadhu actress was pregnant and might have gone for abortion much before she was found dead, reportedly.

Now, as per TOI, Pratyusha's boyfriend Rahul Raj Singh has told cops that he knew about her pregnancy. However, earlier he had denied any such report.

The news about her pregnancy was confirmed by the doctors of JJ Hospital, Mumbai. The report further states that it will be hard for police to determine the father of her child as the resources left may not be enough for a DNA analysis.

According to TOI, Rahul's former lawyer Neeraj Gupta has been quoted as saying, “Pratyusha was eager to get married and her family has learnt that she was keen to have a girl child. The police should investigate if she was forced to undergo an abortion and if Rahul had threatened to get out of the relationship. If true, this could form crucial evidence against Rahul, who has been booked for abetment”.

Pratyusha was found hanging from the ceiling of fan at her Goregaon residence on April 1, 2016.
