NCB to ask Mumbai police for Sushant case seizure memo; whether Rhea's CBD oil was taken

Actor Rhea Chakraborty who is currently undergoing interrogation for the second consecutive day at the Narcotics Control Bureau's office in Mumbai has allegedly claimed that she never consumed drugs or smoked 'buds' in her life, top sources said. On Monday, Rhea was asked about 15-20 questions by NCB over her involvement in the drug angle, which the central agencies are actively probing. Rhea, during her 6-hour interrogation, claimed that all the drugs that she procured through staff Dipesh Sawant and others were for 'Sushant and his friends.' Rhea claimed that she, at best, had smoked cigarettes but shifted the blame for all the drugs on 'Sushant and his circle of friends'. Rhea also claimed that through her brother Showik, she had met alleged drug peddler Basit Parihar on five occasions and he had even visited their house. However, during her joint interrogation with Samuel Miranda, Rhea denied that she had ever done any of the drugs procured by them. Justifying the 'bud' chat with Showik, Rhea claimed that Miranda only gave buds to her which she then gave to Sushant. As per sources, the NCB will write to Mumbai Police and CBI to hand over the seizure memo so as to find out whether the CBD oil mentioned in her chats was seized or recovered. Rhea had mentioned the CBD oil in a chat where she was instructed to put a few drops in Sushant's beverage 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 the donkey work. She has claimed a similar line in relation to all drug use claims regarding her - that she was a facilitator. However, the evidence of her being involved in the procurement of drugs has piled up.
