Mumbai: In Tunisha Sharma’s death case, accused actor Sheezan Mohammad Khan’s family on Monday held a press briefing and addressed all the allegations levelled at him. Notably, Tunisha Sharma was allegedly found hanging in the restroom on the sets of the Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul serial on December 24. Following this, the deceased actress’ former boyfriend Sheezan Khan was arrested under abetment to suicide case.
Refuting all the allegations, Sheezan’s mother, sisters Shafaq Naaz and Falaq Naaz and his lawyer on Monday morning claimed that the actor had a very cordial and understanding relationship with Tunisha.
Sheezan’s family also addressed charges levelled by Tunisha’s family and called them baseless. “My brother had never consumed drugs. They had a very understanding relationship with each other. There was no point of Love Jihad as Tunisha’s mother never wanted her to get married to Sheezan. My brother asked Tunisha to focus on her career. Sheezan was not with her in last 15 minutes,” said Sheezan’s sister.
Sheezan Mohammed Khan’s sister and co-actor Shafaq Naaz has dismissed reports of the actor and his family trying to convert Tunisha Sharma, stating, “The picture of Tunisha in hijab being circulated is from the set of the show which was part of the shoot. It can be seen. We never made her wear hijab, it was from the channel.”
