  • During the NCB’s probe into the drugs angle in late actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case, a wider drugs nexus in Bollywood surfaced.

  • During her questioning, the NCB got information about many persons allegedly having an active role in the Bollywood-drug nexus.
  • Some WhatsApp chats of the persons who were questioned earlier by the NCB suggested discussion about drugs, as per reports.
  • Meanwhile, actress Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik Chakraborty, who have both been arrested by the NCB and placed in judicial custody till October 6, filed an application in the Bombay High Court seeking bail on Tuesday. Their lawyer Satish Maneshinde said the plea will come up for hearing on Thursday after a holiday was declared due to water logging in the city.

  • Rhea Chakraborty, in her bail plea to the Bombay High Court, has said that she is just 28 years of age and has been subjected to investigations by four authorities– NCB, ED, CBI and Mumbai Police. She further stated that all this has taken a ‘severe toll on her mental health and well being’. Further custody will worsen her mental health, she stated in her bail plea.

Still struggling to face my emotions.. an irreparable numbness in my heart . You are the one who made me believe in love, the power of it . You taught me how a simple mathematical equation can decipher the meaning of life and I promise you that I learnt from you every day. I will never come to terms with you not being here anymore. I know you’re in a much more peaceful place now. The moon, the stars, the galaxies would’ve welcomed “the greatest physicist “with open arms . Full of empathy and joy, you could lighten up a shooting star – now, you are one . I will wait for you my shooting star and make a wish to bring you back to me. You were everything a beautiful person could be, the greatest wonder that the world has seen . My words are incapable of expressing the love we have and I guess you truly meant it when you said it is beyond both of us. You loved everything with an open heart, and now you’ve shown me that our love is indeed exponential. Be in peace Sushi. 30 days of losing you but a lifetime of loving you…. Eternally connected To infinity and beyond
