Mumbai: Amid the ongoing investigation into the drug angle to Sushant Singh Rajput death case, Rhea Chakraborty was being interrogated at the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) office here on Sunday.
TV visuals showed Rhea, wearing a mask and a pink kurta, struggling and trying to jostle her way through the crowd in the afternoon to enter the NCB office amid huge security.
The 28-year-old actress was summoned for questioning earlier on Sunday morning, two days after her brother Showik was arrested by the anti-drug agency, NDTV reported.
Following the summons served by NCB officials at Rhea’s house, her lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, said, “Rhea Chakraborty is ready for arrest. It’s a witch hunt. If loving someone is a crime, she will face the consequences.”
On Saturday, the NCB said Showik “will be confronted with sister” Rhea after the probe agency was given his custody till September 9. Rhea has “given so many names with whom he was dealing in drugs”, the agency said in its remand application to a Mumbai court.
“There are specific roles/ingredients of criminal conspiracy, abetments and various attempts to commit offences… The financial trail of all previous transactions of drug purchase has to be verified,” the NCB told the court.
