Mumbai: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Saturday detained a person, Karamjeet, from Andheri West area of Mumbai allegedly in connection with the drugs case related to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
Karamjeet was seen being brought to the NCB office in Mumbai today.
So far, the NCB has arrested several people in the case including actor Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik, Abdul Basit Parihar, Zaid Vilatra, Dipesh Sawant and Samuel Miranda.
Meanwhile, a special NDPS court had yesterday rejected the bail plea of actor Rhea Chakraborty, Showik and several others in the matter.
