TV actor Tunisha Sharma's death sent shockwaves across the nation and the case is being probed by the Mumbai police. Her ex-boyfriend, actor Sheezan Khan is under arrest in connection with case. Now, his sisters have issued a statement on social media asking everyone to provide them privacy ‘in this grave situation’.

Taking to Instagram actors and Sheezan’s sisters shared a long note that read, ‘As much as everyone is eager to know the 'other side of the story, we are equally curious to know, but for time being we'd like for you to allow us privacy in this grave situation.'

The statement further read, ‘Both families are victims at this point. Let the right time come and we will address the matter for sure. But this is not the right time. A death is a painful situation everyone needs to honour the privacy of the affected Families and give them the space to mourn and carry on with the funeral first. It is such an unfortunate state that we lost a precious soul and another is arrested.’

The note concluded, ‘Accusations have been leveled against Sheezan and the police are investigating the case. Let police take the call. I am confident that an innocent guy has been framed without an application of mind." This situation has been overwhelming for the family members and we'd like to take this time to co-operate with the police and let the truth come out. We have complete faith in the Indian judiciary system and hope the truth shall triumph. Also, please do not take our silence for weakness; We will speak soon when the time is right. But for now, allow and respect our privacy.’
