The Narcotics Control Bureau has found out that Sushant Singh Rajput wanted to spend some days at Rhea Chakraborty's home during the lockdown. The couple decided to shift buds clandestinely to her home for which a fast delivery courier company was contacted. After questioning Rhea, Showik and others, the agency got to know that the couple couriered around 500 g curated marijuana in a box along with some household items to the Chakrabortys' home in April.
The central agency in their investigation found out that Sushant Singh Rajput's employee Dipesh Sawant called the courier company and got it delivered to Rhea's Santa Cruz flat, where she lives with her father, Indrajit Chakraborty, mother Sandhya Chakraborty, and brother, Showik Chakraborty. Rhea's brother, Showik, received the packet of the marijuana couriered by Sushant and Rhea at his home. Rhea Chakraborty and Sushant Singh Rajput decided to send the packet of marijuana through a courier agency so that it is not caught by anyone.
