After
Rhea
Chakraborty
and
her
brother
Showik
Chakraborty's
bail
plea,
in
connection
with
the
narcotics
case
linked
to
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
death,
got
rejected
for
the
second
time
last
week,
there
were
reports
that
the
siblings
are
likely
to
apply
in
High
Court
today.
However,
Rhea
Chakraborty's
lawyer
Satish
Maneshinde
denied
these
speculations.
His
statement
read,
"Friends,
even
if
we
get
a
copy
of
the
order
today,
we
are
not
in
a
hurry
&
moving
immediately.
We
will
study
the
order,
it's
implications
and
developments
in
the
case
at
the
NCB
level
and
then
decide.
There's
no
room
for
speculation.
Once
it
is
filed,
we
will
share
a
copy
of
the
bail
application."
After
days
of
interrogation,
Rhea
Chakraborty,
her
brother
Showik
and
others
were
arrested
by
the
Narcotics
Control
Bureau
(NCB)
under
section
8
(c),
20
(b),
27
(a),
28
and
29
of
NDPS
Act,
last
week.
Their
blea
plea
application
was
rejected
by
the
magistrate
court
on
the
day
of
their
arrest.
Later,
Rhea
applied
a
fresh
bail
application
in
the
Mumbai
sessions
court,
in
which
claimed
to
be
innocent.
She
claimed
that
she
has
not
committed
any
crime
whatsoever,
and
has
been
falsely
implicated
in
the
case.
The
actress
argued
that
her
arrest
in
the
case
was
"unwarranted
and
without
any
justification
and
that
her
liberty
had
been
"arbitrarily
curtailed".
She
also
alleged
that
no
woman
officer
was
present
during
her
interrogation.
Rhea's
bail
plea
got
rejected
for
the
second
time.
Currently,
the
actress
is
lodged
in
Byculla
jail,
and
will
continue
to
remain
in
the
judiciary
custody
till
September
22,
2020.
The
NCB
joined
the
probe
in
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
death
case
after
the
Enforcement
Directorate,
who
is
investigating
the
money
laundering
angle
in
the
case,
came
across
Rhea
and
Showik's
chat
messages
which
mentioned
of
drugs.
Besides
these
two
agencies,
the
Central
Bureau
of
Investigation
(CBI)
is
also
probing
Sushant's
death
case.
The
actor
was
found
dead
in
his
Bandra
flat
on
June
14,
2020.
