COURT GRANTS PERMISSION TO UNFREEZE RHEA CHAKRABORTY’S BANK ACCOUNTS | 10 November, 2021

A special Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) court recently granted Rhea Chakraborty’s plea to refreeze her bank accounts frozen by the Narcotics Control Bureau last year after she was booked in the drugs case following the death of Sushant Singh Rajput. The court also allowed a separate plea by her to reclaim her laptop and mobile phone.

The court directed the actress to execute an indemnity bond of Rs. 1 lakh. Both, Rhea, who was in a relationship with Sushant at the time of his death, and her brother, Showik Chakraborty, were arrested in the case. They were granted bail by the Bombay high court.

The court imposed conditions and said that Rhea would have to give a written undertaking supported by an affidavit that when required, during the pendency and conclusion of the trial, she would make available the balance amount, as shown in the accounts.
