'Congratulations India, You’ve Demolished A Middle Class Family': Rhea Chakraborty's Father On Son Showik's Arrest

Rhea Chakraborty's father broke his silence condemning the arrest of his 24-year-old son Showik Chakraborty in Sushant Singh Rajput death case.

Amid the entire drug controversy around Sushant Singh Rajput's death probe, actress Rhea Chakraborty's father Indrajit Chakraborty broke his silence condemning the arrest of his 24-year-old son Showik Chakraborty by Narcotics Control Bureau. In a statement issued on Saturday, Indrajit Chakraborty said, "Congratulations, India. You’ve arrested my son, I'm sure my daughter is next on the line. You’ve effectively demolished a middle-class family. Of course, for the sake of Justice, everything is justified. Jai Hind." The statement came a day after the NCB, which is probing the drug angle in Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case, raided the house of Rhea Chakraborty and manager Samuel Miranda on Friday, September 4. After almost 10 long hours of interrogation, the agency arrested actress's brother Showik and Samuel Miranda under IPC sections 20 (B), 28 (counterfeit), 29, and 27 (A). The NCB had sought 7-day custody of Showik and Samuel Miranda. Based on reports, Showik had confessed that Rhea asked him and Samuel Miranda to procure drugs. The NCB said that Showik Chakraborty, brother of Rhea Chakraborty, used to purchase ganja and marijuana from drug peddler Abdul Basit Parihar and make payments through a Google Pay account.
