Sushant case: NCB arrests drug peddler Keshwani

In a major breakthrough in the drug angle related to the Sushant Singh Rajput death case, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officials on Monday arrested one more person for alleged drug peddling.

Anuj Keshwani was held based on the information provided by Kaizen Ibrahim during the interrogation.

Anuj Keshwani was under examination for questioning since Sunday. Kaizen had reportedly disclosed that Anuj was his supplier for the contrabands.

Kaizen Ibrahim was arrested by the NCB on Friday after his name was revealed by another accused Abdel Basit Parihar, who was nabbed on 3rd September.

Notably, Showik Chakraborty, the brother of Sushant Singh Rajput’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty, and Sushant’s home manager Samuel Miranda were arrested last week.

 In another development, Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty appeared before the NCB for questioning for the second straight day on Monday. The 28-year-old was grilled for around six hours by the agency for the first time in this case yesterday.

 In Mumbai, 590 grams of Hashish, 0.64 grams of LSD sheets, 304 grams of marijuana, including imported marijuana joints and capsules, Rs 1,85,200 in cash, and 5,000 Indonesian Rupiah were seized by the NCB.

Meanwhile, in Delhi, NCB on Sunday busted an international heroin smuggling syndicate and arrested seven persons, including foreigners, and seized drugs worth about Rs 48 crore.
