Over a year after the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested Rhea Chakraborty in connection with the drug case related to Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput‘s death, the special court has ordered the unfreezing of the actress's bank accounts and the return of her electronic gadgets. The NCB also arrested her brother and over two dozen others, including alleged drug peddlers, last year in the same case.
Special judge DB Mane said, "From the reply of the investigating officer, it appears that there is no strong objection from the NCB side for defreezing the bank accounts and FDs of Chakraborty."
The judge further added, "In such circumstances, Chakraborty is entitled for defreezing the bank accounts and FDs subject to conditions and undertaking supported by an affidavit stating that during the pendency and conclusion of the trial of the case, she shall make the balance amount, as shown in the concerned account as on 16/09/2020, available for passing necessary orders, as and when required."
In another plea earlier, Rhea sought that her gadgets, a Macbook Pro Apple Laptop and Apple Iphone, be returned. The articles were seized and sent to the laboratory and now the articles are back from the lab. It is further submitted that the investigating officer has already informed the actress to collect her property.
