Actor Sheezan Khan was arrested for allegedly abetting the suicide of his late co-actor, and ex-girlfriend Tunisha Sharma. However, the police said on Tuesday that he has been repeatedly been changing his statements, and has not yet given any clear reason why he broke up with Tunisha. 

As per the Waliv police, Sheezan has clearly denied being involved with several girls while he was in a relationship with Tunisha, and reportedly broke down during interrogation. 

"Sheezan has been in police custody for the last two days and we are continuously interrogating the accused. When the lady police officer of Waliv police station reached to interrogate the accused, he started crying. For two consecutive days, he kept on narrating different theories for breaking up with Tunisha but when a woman officer questioned him, he started crying. Whatever inquiry is being done on the basis of the family's allegations. Sheezan has denied the existence of any other girl in his life," news agency ANI quoted a police official as saying. 

For those caught unaware, Sheezan was in a relationship with Tunisha and they broke up two weeks ago. They were working together on TV show ‘Ali Baba Dastaan-E-Kabul’, and on the sets of the same show, Tunisha was found dead on December 24. 

Meanwhile, the police is also finding out about Sheezan's "secret girlfriend", and the woman officer said that it was difficult to guess his emotions by looking at his body language. 

The police added, "The investigation is progressing. So far, the statements of 17 people related to the case have been recorded. Sheezan is changing his statement again and again. Till now he has not given any clear reason of the breakup. The statements of all the people who were present during the suicide on the set will be recorded. Because he is an actor, he might be trying to make it look like this. There is no sadness on his face but police are probing from every angle." 

Tunisha's mother, Vanita Sharma, too had recently claimed that Sheezan was cheating on her daughter. On the basis of her statement, an FIR was registered and the actor was arrested. Tunisha’s last rites were performed on Tuesday, December 27.
