NCB detains Sushant Singh Rajput’s friend in drug case

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has detained assistant director Rishikesh Pawar who is reportedly a close friend of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput.

Earlier, it was reported that the NCB has been conducting a search at Pawar's residence who is said to be absconding.

Previously, actor Arjun Rampal, his sister, and his partner Gabirella Demetriades were also summoned by the NCB.

Actors like Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Shraddha Kapoor, and Rakul Preet Singh were also questioned by the NCB in September last year.

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14, 2020 and the CBI is currently probing the case and is yet to arrive at a conclusion.
