Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul's lead actor Sheezan Khan is currently being interrogated by the police in Tunisha Sharma's suicide case. He will be in police custody till December 28. Now, in the middle of the investigation, Sheezan's sisters, Shafaq Naaz and Falaq Naazz, issued a joint statement. Reacting to the entire matter and reports in the media, they requested privacy to cope with the situation.
In the statement, Shafaq and Falaq wrote, "As much as everyone is eager to know the 'other side of the story', we are equally curious to know, but for time being we'd like for you to allow us privacy in this grave situation. Both families are victims at this point. Let the right time come and we will address the matter for sure. But this is not the right time. A death is a painful situation everyone needs to honour the privacy of the affected Families and give them the space to mourn and carry on with the funeral first. It is such an unfortunate state that we lost a precious soul and another is arrested."
The sisters further added, "Accusations have been leveled against Sheezan and the police are investigating the case. Let police take the call. I am confident that an innocent guy has been framed without an application of mind. This situation has been overwhelming for the family members and we'd like to take this time to co-operate with the police and let the truth come out. We have complete faith in the Indian judiciary system and hope the truth shall triumph. Also, please do not take our silence for weakness; We will speak soon when the time is right. But for now, allow and respect our privacy."
According to reports, Tunisha was close to her boyfriend Sheezan's sister Falaq, who is also an actress. Tunisha, at the age of 20, died by suicide on December 24 on the set of Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul. On her mother's complaint, the cops arrested Sheezan and lodged a case of abetment to suicide.
