Yesterday on 7th October, Rhea Chakraborty finally stepped out of Byculla Jail after spending a month behind the bars. She was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) for allegedly procuring drugs in the case of Sushant Singh Rajput‘s case, which is being investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). However, her brother Showik was not granted bail due to his direct connections to the drug peddlers. Soon after Rhea got out of the jail, her lawyer Satish Maneshinde issued a statement saying that justice has been served.
Rhea’s lawyer was qouted saying to NDTV that, “I personally went to a jail to see a client after so many years, because she was hounded, and I wanted to see the condition that she was in. I was fortunate to see that she was in good spirits. She looked after herself in the jail.” He further added that “She used to conduct yoga classes for herself and her jail inmates. She adjusted herself in the jail, because she could not get home food because of the pandemic, and she lived with the inmates as if she was a commoner. Being an army girl, she fought the conditions like a battle, and she is ready to face any person who is trying to accuse her and harm her interests.”
Even though Rhea has been granted bail, the court has ordered her to be present in the neared Police Station for the next 10 days and deposit Rs 1 Lakh of bond. Her passport has been taken away as well.
