New Delhi: In a major development, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested Rhea Chakraborty on Tuesday in the drug conspiracy related to the death case of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The actress was cited for the third day in a row by NCB.
The sources have been known, the NCB also questioned Rhea on the same question that Zee News highlighted: “Drugs or medicine, what will you give if your friend is unwell?”
The actress during her questioning with the NCB admitted to giving Sushant Singh Rajput weed on two or three occasions, but only at the request of the late actor. Officials then asked her if she knew Sushant was receiving treatment from a psychiatrist to which she said “yes, I did.”
In the latest round of questioning, NCB officials investigated Rhea about her conversation with her brother Showik and asked her about the timeline of events.
Previously, conversations had emerged in which Rhea asked Showik to get drugs for Sushant. When asked what happened after the talk, Rhea revealed that Showik through her contacts obtained buds and weed that was given to the actress, who in turn gave it to Sushant.
On this basis, the entire chat timeline was understood, followed by Rhea’s arrest by the NCB. Her family has been informed of her arrest. She was taken directly to Sion Hospital in Mumbai for medical examinations and in the evening via video conference she will appear in court.
Meanwhile, his lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, after his arrest, said: Parody of justice. 3 Central agencies harassed an unmarried woman, just because she was in love with a drug addict and suffered from mental health problems for several years under the care of 5 leading psychiatrists in Mumbai, who ended up committing suicide due to the use of illegally administered medications and used drugs.
Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead at his Bandra residence on June 14, 2020.
