The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Thursday debunked actor Rakul Preet Singh’s claims, which revealed that the subpoenas due to the actor had also been issued digitally. This comes shortly after Rakul’s team claimed that they had not received the “alleged subpoena” so far in either Mumbai or Hyderabad.
Breaking her claims, NCB officer KPS Malhotra called the actor and accused her of trying to “mislead” the agency with her “excuses.” “Her subpoena was issued and she was contacted through various platforms, including the phone where she was not available. So far there has been no response from her,” KPS Malhotra told Republic TV. Shortly after this, Rakul Preet appeared, agreeing that the summons was with her and that she would now join the investigation a day later, on Friday.
‘Rakul cheating the OCN’
“Rakul Preet is cheating on us, he doesn’t tell us if she is Hyderabad or Mumbai. If she is in Mumbai, then is she in the H&M or Garden apartment? She moved to the H&M apartment three months ago. She also lives or goes with her boyfriend to his house and he stays there. We have also delivered the summons to him by WhatsApp, “he said.
The agency also threatened to serve him an arrest warrant without bail, if he keeps turning up with excuses. “We believe this is just an excuse that you have not received a subpoena. The subpoenas have also been duly delivered to you in digital format. A practice that has been followed since the Covid-19 pandemic. Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor received a A physical copy of the 16/20 subpoena and digital subpoenas were also sent. Now a non-bond order (NBW) will be sought if she comes with an excuse. A second subpoena will be sent to her, “he said.
