Satish Kaushik Demise: ‘Won’t cooperate until investigating officer is changed,' says farmhouse owner Vikas Malu's wife

Satish Kaushik (1956-2023)

New Delhi: After being summoned by the Delhi Police in connection with the death of veteran actor Satish Kaushik, businessman Vikas Malu's second wife has said that she won't cooperate in the investigation, until the investigating inspector with "suspicious role" is changed.

Vikas Malu's second wife, who levelled serious allegations against her husband has been summoned by the Delhi Police to record her statement in connection on Monday.

"Whereas the above mentioned complaint filed by you on 11.03.2023, is being enquired by the undersigned. There are reasonable ground to examine you to ascertain facts and circumstances in relation to the enquiry of the above mentioned complaint. Therefore, you are requested to join the enquiry before the undersigned on 13.03.23 at 11 am, at your home or any other place convenient to you," the Delhi Police stated in the notice.

However, the woman's lawyer Rajendra Chhabra said that Vikas Malu's wife won't cooperate in the investigation pertaining to the "suspicious" role of the investigating officer.

Chhabra said, "The role of the inspector, under whose supervision the whole investigation is taking place, is already under scanner. My client (Vikas Malu's wife) will not join the investigation till the inspector is changed".

The lawyer said that they have also sent an email to the Delhi Police Commissioner regarding this and has told about the "suspicious" role of the Inspector

"The woman had made rape allegations against her husband Vikas Malu, and it was the same inspector investigating the case. But, he was removed from investigation for allegedly tampering with the evidence. Now, again after the complaint of my client, the same inspector has been appointed for investigation, which is surprising," Chhabra added.

Vikas Malu's wife has levelled serious accusations against her husband. She alleged that actor Satish Kaushik and her husband had business links and there was a monetary dispute between the two.

She further alleged, "When I later asked from him about the money, my husband said that he borrowed the money from Satish ji, but the money went for loss during the Covid period. My husband was not in the mood to return the money, he even said that he will use blue pills and Russian girls to do away with Satish Kaushik. That's why I have brought this angle to the police for fair investigation."

However, Satish Kaushik's wife Shashi Kaushik reacted strongly to the allegations and refuted the claims of financial transactions. She also asked Vikas Malu's wife to withdraw the case.

Further investigation is underway. (ANI)
