Earlier, Saqib had called for the release of Rhea, who was jailed earlier this week for allegedly purchasing drugs for Sushant. Sushant died on June 14 and her father accused Rhea in an FIR of instigating the actor’s suicide and embezzling his funds. A drugs angle was discovered during the investigation into Rhea’s financial dealings, after which the Office of Narcotics Control launched a separate investigation.
Saqib had also clarified in a post on social media that by calling for Rhea’s release, he was not disrespecting Sushant’s memory. “We are not undermining SSR’s right to obtain justice. We are not asking to stop the investigation into Rhea’s involvement. We only defend the fact that, like everyone else, she deserves a chance at a fair trial, ”her message read.
