A source close to NCB has revealed to the news channel that Rhea accepted consuming drugs after the investigating body told her that procuring and peddling is a bigger offense than consuming. The source stated, "While the actor had earlier claimed that she had only procured drugs for Sushant and his friends, she has now admitted that she did consume drugs herself. Rhea cracked after the NCB made her realise that procuring and peddling narcotics was a more serious offence than consuming them." The report further claims that Rhea cracked at the 55th question and that her team had tutored her over the answers she gave to NCB.
Apart from Rhea, her brother Showik Chakraborty too stands arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau. Their bail pleas were rejected by magistrate court and sessions court. They are expected to move to the High Court. Rhea's judicial custody comes to an end on September 22.
