The Bombay High Court has granted permission to Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty, an accused in the drug case associated with the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, to travel abroad for professional commitments with a pet food company, where she serves as a brand ambassador. Rhea has been authorized to travel between December 27 and January 2, 2024.

Despite the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) informing the court about the intensified investigation into Sushant Singh Rajput's case, a vacation bench of Justices Kamal Khata and Jitendra Jain temporarily lifted the Lookout Circular (LOC). Following Rajput's death in his Bandra apartment on June 14, 2020, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) was formed to investigate the matter. The CBI took over the investigation after Rajput's father filed a complaint in Patna. ALSO READ: Sushant Singh Rajput's Sister, Shweta Hits Back At Rhea Chakraborty For Her Latest Comments?

The Chehre actress had filed an application requesting a temporary suspension of the Lookout Circular (LOC), citing her necessity to travel to Dubai from December 27 to January 2 for professional commitments. She mentioned being a brand ambassador for a pet food company and required to attend an event in Dubai. However, the CBI counsel, Shreeram Shirsat, opposed her plea, asserting that the investigation into the death probe had gained momentum, and she should not be allowed to travel abroad at this critical stage.
The Bombay High Court has provisionally lifted Rhea's Lookout Circular (LOC) and allowed her to travel under the condition that she would surrender her parents’ passports during her travel period. Additionally, she has been instructed to provide a comprehensive itinerary of her visit, including her contact information and address in Dubai, where she plans to travel.
