In a fresh statement released by Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde, he has stated that while he has read the statements of doctors from AIIMS with regards to the forensic report submitted by them to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), they will wait for the official version of CBI before commenting on anything.

Satish Maneshinde said in a statement, "I have seen the statement of the doctors from AIIMS concerning SSR case. The official papers and report are only with AIIMS and CBI which will be submitted in court once investigations are over. We await the official version of CBI."

He added, "We on behalf of Rhea Chakraborty have always said that truth cannot be changed under any circumstances. The speculations against Rhea in some quarters of the media are motivated and mischievous. We remain committed to truth alone. Satya Meva Jayate."
