Agencies, May 28: In a major action, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Friday said that it has arrested Sidharth Pitani, a flatmate of late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput in a drug related case.
“Pithani has been arrested from Hyderabad,” an NCB official told.
The arrest comes almost two and half months after it filed a 12,000-page charge sheet against 33 people, including actress Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik and others in the Bollywood drugs mafia probe case linked to Sushant’s death on June 14, 2020, when he was found hanging in his flat.
On March 5, the NCB charge sheet was filed before a Mumbai Special NDPS Court, following two cases registered by the drug law enforcement agency after an intimation from the Enforcement Directorate which was probing the financial angles in Sushant’s death.
