So here’s the most uncomfortable truth: If the NCB case goes to court, then Sushant, if alive, would have been the main defendant as a drug consumer, buyer and financier. So far Justice for SSR: This is what the campaign has done: the legacy of a good actor linked to drug abuse!

Rhea was placed in custody until September 22 by a local court after the bail declaration was rejected.
The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has claimed that Rhea was an “active member” of a drug syndicate and purchased medication for Sushant. “Rhea has been arrested under sections 27A, 21, 22, 29 and 28 of the NDPS,” said KPS Malhotra, deputy director of NCB.
Three federal agencies are investigating various angles surrounding Sushant’s death, including the Directorate of Enforcement and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Rhea has been charged with aiding and abetting suicide in connection with Sushant’s death that the CBI is investigating, and a related money laundering case that the ED is investigating.
