Sushant death Case: Showik Chakraborty, Miranda to be produced in local court today

Mumbai/IBNS/UNI: Actress Rhea Chakraborty's brother Showik Chakraborty and late Sushant Singh Rajput's former manager Samuel Miranda, who have been arrested following the questioning by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in connection with drug allegation probe surrounding the late actor's death in June, will be produced in the local court on Saturday afternoon, NCB sources said.

Both of them were on Saturday morning taken to a government hospital for a medical check-up.

During the production of the accused in the local court, prosecution will seek their custody for the interrogation, sources added. 

The bureau has drawn links between Showik, who is the brother of Sushant's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, and alleged drug dealer Zaid Vilatra, who has been arrested, media reports said.

Sushant, who is widely known for portraying former Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni onscreen, was found dead at his flat in Mumbai's Bandra.

Though the Mumbai Police were probing into the death case, Sushant's father KK Singh had filed a First Information Report (FIR) with the Bihar Police alleging that Rhea had siphoned Rs. 15 crore from the actor.

As now the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is probing into Sushant's death case, a WhatsApp conversation, where the late actor's girlfriend was allegedly seen talking about drugs, has surfaced.

The federal probe agency is investigating the drugs angle of the Sushant death case.
