Sushant Singh Rajput’s family lawyer alleged on Saturday that Mumbai police were hiding “something very big” after the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested Rhea Chakraborty’s brother, Showik Chakraborty, and the manager of cleaning of the late actor, Samuel Miranda.
“The arrests by NCB demonstrate the family’s fear that there was something very big that the Mumbai police wanted to hide. Clearly, there are several angles in this case. The family hopes that more angles will emerge, ”Vikas Singh told the ANI news agency.
