MUMBAI: The Sushant Singh Rajput case is intensifying with each passing day. The NCB has also entered the probe, and both agencies, NCB and CBI, will be investigating the case.

Times Now got in touch with Gaurav Arya, the businessman whose name cropped up in the WhatsApp chat along with Rhea. 

He has said that he hasn't been in touch with Rhea for the past three years and is ready to cooperate with the agencies. He admitted that he had a chat with Rhea three years back and said that he will give his statement to the agencies.

He also claimed that the media is making him out to be a drug peddler, which is not right and not acceptable. He added that he did not know SSR personally and never met the actor.

With the NCB probing the case, we are sure that the truth will be out soon.
