The NCB also said that a search carried out at his Khar residence had led it to Alprazolan, a banned tablet.

The agency further said that he is part of the larger drug syndicate and supplied narcotics to the peddlers who were in touch with Sushant’s girlfriend-actor Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik, both of whom were arrested in the case. While Rhea has been granted bail, Showik is still in jail.
