Actress
Rhea
Chakraborty,
who
is
facing
investigation
over
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
death
and
the
related
drugs
probe
by
the
Narcotics
Control
Bureau
(NCB),
has
opposed
the
petition
filed
by
the
late
actor's
sisters
in
the
Bombay
High
Court.
Sushant's
sisters
had
filed
a
petition
in
the
Bombay
HC
to
quash
the
first
information
report
(FIR)
against
them.
Rhea
Chakraborty
filed
an
affidavit
in
the
HC
on
Tuesday,
October
27,
in
which
she
requested
the
court
to
not
cancel
the
FIR
against
SSR's
sisters,
Priyanka
and
Meetu
Singh.
In
her
petition,
the
actress
alleged
that
Priyanka
Singh
and
Dr
Tarun
Kumar
had
illegally
prescribed
medicines
that
contained
psychotropic
substances
to
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
without
consultation.
According
to
Rhea
Chakraborty's
affidavit,
Sushant
had
received
WhatsApp
messages
from
sister
Priyanka
containing
the
prescriptions
on
June
8,
2020,
six
days
before
the
actor
was
found
dead
at
his
residence
on
June
14,
2020.
An
FIR
was
registered
against
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
sisters
upon
the
complaint
filed
by
the
actress.
However,
Priyanka
and
Meetu
Singh
filed
a
petition
later,
requesting
the
case
to
be
quashed.
Priyanka
and
Meetu
Singh
have
also
appealed
to
the
Central
Bureau
of
Investigation,
who
is
handling
the
case
currently,
to
not
take
any
action
against
them.
However,
Rhea
Chakraborty
who
raised
an
objection
against
the
petition
filed
by
Sushant's
sisters,
stated
that
it
needs
to
be
investigated
whether
Sushant
consumed
the
prescribed
medicines,
which
may
have
deteriorated
his
mental
health
and
contributed
to
his
death.
The
actress
has
also
requested
the
court
to
dismiss
the
petition
filed
by
Priyanka
and
Meetu
Singh,
in
her
affidavit.
