Sushant Singh Rajput death: Rhea Chakraborty arrested by NCB

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has arrested late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s rumoured girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty today under various sections of NDPS. Reportedly, to break the drug cartel her custodial interrogation is needed. Media reports said that the agency has sufficient evidence against Rhea Chakraborty.

The process of Rhea Chakraborty’s arrest by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) is underway after three days of questioning in connection with drugs-related allegations in the Sushant Singh Rajput case.

The 28-year-old actor, named as an accused in the CBI investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput’s death on June 14, had denied consuming drugs. Her brother Showik was arrested last week.

The Narcotics Control Bureau started its inquiries based on WhatsApp chats retrieved from Rhea Chakraborty’s phone, which revealed conversations around procuring drugs, allegedly for Sushant Singh Rajput.

On Monday, Rhea Chakraborty made an emotional declaration, according to sources, telling the Narcotics Control Bureau – “Whatever I did, I did for Sushant”.
