MUMBAI: Sushant Singh Rajput passed away, allegedly by suicide, in June last year. The Narcotics Control Bureau began its probe into the drug angle in August. Now, it has filed a massive chargesheet in front of a special NDPS court. It names 33 accused, including Rhea Chakraborty and contains statements of 200 witnesses. The hard copy contains over 12,000 pages and the digital format is around 50,000 pages!

The chargesheet has also traced the trail of narcotics in Mumbai. After the first arrest the agency made in September, NCB had six months to file the chargesheet. The case was registered in August after the Enforcement Directorate shared private WhatsApp chats allegedly on sourcing drugs between Rhea and Showik Chakraborty and some of Sushant Singh Rajput's staff. They were accused by the agency of supplying drugs to the actor. While Rhea, Showik, and Sushant Singh Rajput's staff are out on bail, the agency arrested over 30 people in connection with this, and several are in custody at present.

All these have been submitted to the court. They will now be verified and then the accused will be asked to appear in the court.
