    Sushant Singh Rajput's friend absconding after NCB summons him
  • In a fresh development in the ongoing drugs case related to late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death, his friend Rishikesh Pawar is currently absconding, reports said on Friday.

    Pawar, an assistant director, has been untraceable since the Narcotics Control Bureau summoned him for questioning.

    The anti-drug agency has since launched a search for Pawar.

    Here are more details on this.

  • Pawar was grilled by the NCB in September 2020 after being named by the accused Dipesh Sawant as one of the persons supplying drugs to the late actor.

    Based on Sawant's claims, Pawar's house was raided by the NCB at that time.

    Pawar had earlier approached the Mumbai sessions court seeking anticipatory bail in the matter.

    However, his application was rejected.

  • "We wanted to question him about the drugs angle from the very beginning but he was non co-operative and had refused to come in for questioning despite being issued summons. This further strengthened our suspicion about his role in the case," said an NCB official.
