Vanita Sharma, made a series of accusations during a press conference in Mumbai.

"Sheezan took her from the room but did not call the Ambulance. This could also be a murder, how is it possible that she was found in Sheezan's room and it was Sheezan only who brought her down, but did not call the ambulance or doctors? Sheezan forced her to wear Hijab as well," Vanita Sharma said addressing a press conference. Tunisha Sharma Dies by Suicide; TV Actress Allegedly Hung Herself on Sets of Ali Baba Dastaan-E-Kabul.
