CBI questions Rhea Chakraborty for 10 hours, summons her for next day
New Delhi : Actor Rhea Chakraborty was questioned by the CBI in Sushant Singh Rajput murder case for over 10 hours on Friday; she was again summoned by the investigative agency for questioning on Saturday. Rhea has been asked to appear before the central agency at 10:30 am.
Rhea Chakraborty is believed to be the girlfriend of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput; she was asked 10 key questions related to the case on Friday. CBI asked her about the conversations she had with Sushant Singh Rajput post June 6, when she left his house and days after the Kai Po Che actor was found dead in the same home.
The CBI had taken over the case as per Supreme Court's directive and investigating Sushant Singh Rajput family's claims of Rhea Chakraborty's alleged mental harassment and financial irregularities.
Her brother Showik is also being questioned by the agency. Domestic staff at Mr Rajput's Mumbai home, where he was found dead, and his flatmate, Siddharth Pithani are also being questioned.
The ED is looking into "suspicious financial transactions" involving crores of rupees, while the NCB is looking into drugs-related allegations based on WhatsApp chats retrieved from Ms Chakraborty's phone.
"It is extremely hurtful from someone (Sushant's father) going through a loss this big. I loved his son, looked after him. At least have humanity. If not for me, for him," she told NDTV on Thursday. Mr Rajput's father had filed a case against Ms Chakraborty with police in Bihar's Patna, alleging she had a hand in his son's death.
She also rejected any kind of involvement in drug related case and also mentioned that she has never taken even a single rupee from the actor.
