The lawyer for Sushant Singh's sister has said that they will challenge the High Court's verdict in the Supreme Court.

After the verdict, Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde tweeted, "We are satisfied with the verdict. It appears ultimately Rhea Chakraborty's cry for Justice and Truth has prevailed. Satya Meva Jayate." 

The court further said that the CBI investigation against Priyanka Singh, who shared the medicine prescription with Sushant Singh Rajput over WhatsApp, will continue.

"There is prima facie case found against Priyanka Singh and there should not be any impediment against investigation against her," the judges said.
