As the second day of questioning to Rhea Chakraborty started by NCB in Sushant Singh Rajput’s case, the reports suggest that the actress has confessed to have procured drugs from SSR’s house staff Dipesh Sawant but for the actor and his friends. As per the CNN report, the Jalebi actress denied of ever consuming drugs and admitted of smoking ciggarettes. The actress also confessed that she met drug peddler Abdel Basit Parihar through her brother Showik Chakraborty.
Talking earlier to India Today, the actress claimed that Sushant Singh Rajput used to smoke marijuana and said, “It is unfortunate that we have to speak about someone’s vices when they are no more. Yes, he smoked marijuana. He used to do it since before he met me. Even during the time of Kedarnath, he used to smoke. But he is that kind of a man. I tried to stop him. But he would do what he liked. If he wanted to take medicines, he would, if he wanted to smoke, he would.”
She also claimed that SSR was in depression and added, “He was depressed. He was seeking treatment too. He told me he had met a psychiatrist in 2013. He had been admitted to Hinduja hospital for treatment too at one point, he was under Dr Kersi Chavda. Sushant ke depression ka ek bada reason hai ki he wasn’t able to live without his mother. She also struggled with mental illness. But I did not give him any drug. Doctors gave a prescription, based on which we got the medicines. Everyone knows you cannot buy these without a valid prescription. When someone shares your fears with you, your relationship becomes real. There’s no facade left. We worked at it together. In December 2019, he was getting better under Dr Chavda’s treatment. I have all the messages, ED and Mumbai Police have records of my phone, and I will cooperate with CBI too, obviously. But people outside are speculating. So much so, that my mother is on the verge of getting admitted to a hospital.”
