Sushant case: NCB arrests alleged drug dealer

TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ The Narcotics Control Bureau on Wednesday arrested an alleged contraband dealer who has “links” with the drugs trafficking case pertaining to the death case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, officials said. The man identified as Zaid is understood to be involved in the supply of narcotics like bud or curated marijuana to the high-end party circles of Mumbai.

The best quality of bud is sold at the rate of about Rs 5,000 per gram, NCB officials said. Agency sleuths claimed he was arrested after they obtained some “vital leads” into the narcotics case registered against Rajput’s live-partner Rhea Chakraborty and others.

The agency last week had arrested two men for alleged drug trafficking in the western metropolis and it is understood that the leads against the detained man came after questioning them. Some more such operators based in Maharashtra, Delhi and Goa are under the scanner of the agency, they said.
