Senior Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut said that he would refrain from commenting on the Supreme Court's order handing over the probe into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput to CBI.

Raut was quoted by ANI as saying that, "Those in the government who know the law, the Mumbai Police Commissioner or our Advocate General can talk about it, it is not fit for me to comment on the verdict of Supreme Court".

Raut had been persistently opposing the CBI investigation into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput by reiterating that the Mumbai police is capable of carrying out the investigation.

This has included Raut mocking other parties in the probe like the Bihar Police via his statements like, "we would need to shut the Mumbai Police department if Bihar Police starts giving gyan (sermons) to Mumbai Police".

Raut had also made allegations like the relations between Sushant and his father K K Singh being strained which led to a legal notice from Sushant's family.

Raut had also demanded an investigation into the breakup between Sushant and Ankita Lokhande and declared that transferring the probe to CBI would be illegal.
