It’s been two years since Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his apartment. There were a lot of uproars when SSR’s death news came out and the case became national news when SSR’s connection with drugs also came to the fore. SSR’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik were at the center of this vortex after NCB filed a case against them for procuring and facilitating drug supply for Sushant.
Now once again the floodgates of this controversy have opened as NCB who is digging deeper into the connection of the drug mafia with SSR’s death has now charged Rhea Chakraborty and 35 other accused including Showik Chakraborty for their involvement in drug trafficking. According to the charge sheet, Rhea and others were involved in the purchase, selling, transport, and distribution of drugs in high society and among Bollywood celebs.
They have also been accused of supporting/financing drug trafficking of marijuana, LSD, hashish, cocaine, and various other narcotic drugs as well as psychotropic substances. If the charges against Rhea are proved in court she faces imprisonment of anywhere between 12 to 20 years.
This latest update in SSR’s death case has brought back the campaign against Rhea once again into the limelight with full force. Moreover, the interview of Sushant’s sister Priyanka Singh on national television has also once again triggered national interest in the case which has been lying dormant for the last more than a year.
Rhea Chakraborty seems unaffected by this entire storm in media as she was spotted outside her gym in the morning today and wished the lurking paparazzi with a typical namaste and moved forward towards her car. Just as there are SSR supporters there are Rhea supporters as well and many A-listed Bollywood families have been supporting the Jalebi actress. Hence it would be interesting to watch whether the truth finally comes out or keeps on dragging similar to the Jiah Khan suicide case.
