NCB charges Rhea Chakraborty for allegedly buying drugs for Sushant
The Narcotics Control Bureau recently charged Rhea Chakraborty for buying marijuana for her late boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput.
The actress has been accused of financing and supplying illegal drug substances from her brother Showik, Sushant's house manager and cook, among others. NCB has filed a charge sheet naming Rhea and 34 others in Sushant Singh's case.
If Rhea Chakraborty is convicted then she might face upto 10 years in jail. The NCB report stated that Rhea purchased marijuana using Sushant's bank account, noting the expense as 'puja samegri' (materials for Puja). The police believe that Rhea is responsible for Sushant's alleged addiction to drugs.
In an interview with NDTV, the actress confirmed that Sushant used to smoke marijuana. However, she denied aiding him with drugs. Sushant's family accused the actress of exploiting him by mentally harassing him and using his money. Rhea was granted bail in September 2020 after being arrested for over a month.
Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide in June 2020 in his Mumbai apartment.
