The Bombay High Court today granted bail to actress Rhea Chakraborty, arrested on drug charges in the death case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
However, the HC rejected the release on bail of his brother Showik Chakraborty, who is also a defendant in the case. A single judge from Judge Sarang Kotwal also rejected the bail statements of alleged drug dealer Abdul Basit Parihar and granted bail to Rhea’s associate Samuel Miranda and personal Rajput staff Dipesh Sawant. All were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in the case.
The bank released Rea on bail by providing a personal bond of ₹1 lakh.
“Rhea must mark her presence for 10 days at the police station after release, deposit her passport, not travel abroad without court permission and inform the investigating officer if she has to leave Greater Mumbai,” the court said.
In particular, a special court (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances) in Mumbai had yesterday extended until October 20 the judicial custody of Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik and others.
Rajput, 34, was found hanging in his apartment in the suburbs of Bandra on June 14 this year.
