Actor Sooraj Pancholi was cleared on Friday by a special court of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of all allegations, including aiding in the suicide of fellow actor Jiah Khan in 2013. Zarina Wahab, the mother of Sooraj, is ecstatic that justice was effectively served and is indebted to God for finally exposing the truth in front of everyone.
“Kehte hain na bhagwaan ke ghar der hai, andher nahi. This was an excellent illustration of it. 10 years is a long time, but God is amazing. He’s given us all a sigh of relief. Mujhe sirf upar wale par hi bharosa tha,” she avers with a sigh of relief.
Jiah Khan’s mother, Rabya Khan, declared that she will keep fighting and pursuing justice for her daughter even as the Pancholi family rejoiced over the case’s success. To which Zarina responded, “Usko maine Allah he hawaale kar dia hai and wahi jawaab dega. I have nothing to say to her. God always serves justice and he did it this time as well. Jo Rabya ke saath karna hai, wo Allah karega. If she wants to continue fighting, let her do it. She also knows what the truth is. Maloom hone ke baad bhi woh aisa kar rahi hai, toh it’s her personal lookout. I don’t have anything to add to that.”
“We never begged for assistance. Na kuch maanga, humne na kisi ke aage haath phelaaye. Sirf supar waale se hi dua maangte the aur upar wale ne humaari sunn li. He took his own time, par insaaf toh mila,” she adds.
Zarina asserts that during these ten years, she never had expectations from anyone. “Bahut saari cheezein hui in 10 saalon mein. Jo hona nahi tha, wo ho gaya. But what can we do now. We can’t change what has happened. 10 saal nikal gaye par lagta hai ki jaise sab kal ki baat hai.” she further adds.
