NCB should probe Kangana Ranaut if she admitted to being drug addict: BJP leader

BJP leader Pravin Darekar has requested the Narcotics Control Bureau to also probe actor Kangana Ranaut in Bollywood drugs nexus case. Stating that law is equal for all, he mentioned that the actress has accepted being an addict and thus should also be interrogated.

“If Kangana has said she was a drug addict then the NCB (Narcotics Control Bureau) should probe. Law is equal for all in our country,” the Leader of Opposition in the state Legislative Council said.

NCB had started probing drugs angle in actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death case and have now unearthed a Bollywood drug nexus. They have arrested Sushant's last girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty after Bihar Police booked her for allegedly abetting suicide of Sushant.

The agency summoned actors Rakul Preet Singh, Deepika Padukone, Shraddha Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan. Rakul and Sara's names in the case was previously revealed by Rhea during one of her investigations with the agency.

Deepika and Shraddha's names, on the other hand, came up after a leaked WhatsApp chat and interrogation with Jaya Saha.

Darekar had pointed out that Adhyayan Suman had revealed that Kangana Ranaut used to take drugs. He ordered Mumbai Police to investigate the matter earlier this month. “Shouldn’t we take precautions if actors in one of the biggest film industries in the world are getting addicted (to drugs)?” he questioned.
