Another team of four members visited Sushant’s home manager Samuel Miranda’s residence as well before officials took him along with them. The operations were conducted as per the provisions of the NDPS Act in the case registered at Mumbai Zonal Unit.

The NCB has already arrested alleged drug dealers Zaid Vilatra and Abdul Basit Parihar, apart from seizing illegal consignments in raids in Mumbai and Delhi. The agency is also questioning another person linked to the case, though the identity has not been revealed yet.

Rhea’s brother Showik is likely to be questioned face-to-face with the arrested drug peddlers. As per sources, Showik helped Basit build contacts for drug supply and allegedly sold potent buds at three times the price, at parties and at a football club in Bandra.
