After continuous criticism of the Central Bureau Investigation (CBI) due to their delay in Sushant Singh Rajput's case, the agency has now turned into a pro-active mode. Going by the reports of Republic,  the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probing the case is considering to add Section 302 of the IPC (Murder) in the case.. 

The CBI has maintained that "no angles have been ruled out" and has reassured through a statement on Monday that the investigation is being conducted in a professional manner, this after AIIMS submitted its medico-legal report.

Interestingly BJP Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy has said that its high time the CBI should file FIR under section 302. Sushant's family lawyer Vikas Singh had said that a doctor who is a part of the AIIMS team had told him long back that the photos sent by him "indicated 200% that it’s death by strangulation and not suicide." He added that the CBI - which the prime investigation agency in the actor's death, has not held a press conference to share the progress in the case.
