The ED officials also questioned Rhea's former manager Shruti Modi and her brother Showik Chakraborty in connection with Sushant's case. The agency has asked Rhea to share her Income Tax Return (ITR) details.

A report in IANS said that Rhea Chakraborty was asked about the details of movable and immovable properties,  companies in which the actress and her family members are stakeholders. The officials also asked her to furnish details of her address, family members, profession, bank account details and credit cards.

Rhea was also asked to give details about how she knew Sushant, and for how long, the report in IANS said.

The ED had registered a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against the 'Chehre' actress on the basis of Sushant's father's complaint in Patna. The agency had earlier rejected Rhea's plea in which she requested her recording of statement be postponed till the hearing in SC.



The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered a case against Rhea Chakraborty, her parents Indrajit Chakraborty & Sandhya Chakraborty, brother Showik Chakraborty, Samuel Miranda, Shruti Modi, and unknown others on Thursday (August 6).  They have been booked under various sections of the IPC including abetment of suicide.

Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti took to social media to share a post after Rhea was questioned by the ED officials.

Sushant’s case took a new turn when his father KK Singh registered an FIR against Rhea Chakraborty, her family members and others at Patna’s Rajiv Nagar Police station. He accused the 'Chehre' actress of threatening his son and keeping him away from his family.

In his six-page long FIR, Singh alleged that Rs 15 crores were transferred from Sushant's bank accounts to other accounts which were not related to him.
