Showik Chakraborty, Rhea Chakraborty’s brother, granted bail by Special NDPS Court
Showik Chakraborty, Rhea Chakraborty’s brother, granted bail by Special NDPS Court at Mumbai in the NDPS case registered by the NCB. He has been under custody since September 5 following the arrest by the NCB in drug case in connection to Sushant Singh Rajput death probe. While Rhea Chakraborty was granted bail on October 7, Showik was denied and was kept in judicial custody. In November, he had filed a fresh bail plea which was earlier rejected.
Showik was lodged in Taloja Central Jail in Raigad and had claimed that he had been falsely implicated in the case and that no drugs were seized from him during the investigations. “In the facts and circumstances of the present case, there has been no recovery of drugs in commercial quantity from the applicant… all allegations pertain only to small quantities, and hence the embargo imposed by Section 37 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 will not be applicable,” he said in his bail plea.
