Mumbai: The Bombay High Court on Tuesday reserved its order on the bail plea of Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik Chakraborty and others arrested in connection with the drug syndicate case.
NCB has opposed the bail of Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik and others. ASG Anil Singh of NCB on Tuesday told the Bombay High Court that the case is not related to Sushant Singh Rajput and pointed out that he may have been the consumer but the entire transaction and deal is not restricted to him.
On Monday, NCB admitted two affidavits to the Bombay High Court that state, “Electronic evidence such as WhatsApp chats, records were retrieved from mobile, laptop and hard-disk and it indicated payment made for the drugs. Thus, there is ample evidence to show present applicant (Rhea Chakraborty) has not only regularly dealt with but also financed illicit trafficking of drugs.”
They were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau in drugs-related matter, which surfaced during the investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case.
Rhea was arrested on September 8 and Showik was taken into NCB custody on September 4. After her arrest, Rhea was sent to Byculla jail while Showik is lodged at Taloga Central Jail.
