Rhea also claimed that through her bror Showik, she h met alleged drug peddler Basit Parihar on five occasions and he h even visited ir house. However, during her joint interrogation with Samuel Miranda, Rhea denied that she h ever done any of drugs procured by m. Justifying 'bud' chat with Showik, Rhea claimed that Miranda only gave buds to her which she n gave to Sushant.

As per sources, NCB will write to Mumbai Police and CBI to hand over seizure memo so as to find out wher CBD oil mentioned in her chats was seized or recovered. Rhea h mentioned CBD oil in a chat where she was instructed to put a few drops in Sushant's bever and that it would 'kick in' within 45 minutes. In her interviews she claimed that it was all at Sushant's behest and that she was merely doing donkey work. She has claimed a similar line in relation to all drug use claims regarding her - that she was a facilitator. However, evidence of her being involved in procurement of drugs has piled up.
