Some social media posts have claimed the 23-year-oldwoman, who died after falling from a building in Pune'sHadapsar area on February 8, was in a relationship with acabinet minister in the state.

Speaking to reporters here, Gorhe, deputy chairpersonof the state Legislative Council, said there was no doubt thedeath was suspicious, and added that ''keeping aside party andpolitics, the police would reach to the root of the case''.

''The CM has clarified that a detailed probe will takeplace in the case. There is no question of saving somebody.

The truth will surface and it won't be suppressed,'' she said.
