Kshitij Prasad was arrested after Rakul Preet Singh's statement, here's what he had to say
Kshitij Prasad has been arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau after having strong hints that he was in possession of drugs. The agency is currently seeking four-day custody of former Dharmatic (sister concern of Karan Johar's Dharma Productions) executive producer, confirmed Times Now.
The news agency also said that Rakul Preet Singh, during her probe with the NCB, revealed that Kshitij procured drugs for Bollywood celebrities regularly. They also reported that teh actress took four names of high-profile celebrities and said that he provided drugs to them on regular basis, along with other celebs.
According to reports, NCB also raided his home and found small quantity of weed there. Kshitij had told reporters "I am being framed" while being taken for interrogation on Saturday.
Prasad was arrested hours after Karan Johar disassociated himself from Kshitij. "Mr Prasad joined Dharmatic Entertainment, a company linked to Dharma Productions, in November 2019 as one of the executive producers on contract basis for a project which eventually did not materialise. Neither l, nor Dharma Productions can be made responsible for what people do in their personal lives. These allegations do not pertain to Dharma Productions," read a part of the statement which Karan Johar released.
ANI confirmed the news of the arrest, sharing images of Kshitij and stating that he is being taken for COVID-19 test, which is a formality before arresting someone.
The agency had previously shared, "Dharma Productions executive producer Kshitij Ravi Prasad to be arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau soon, in connection with a drug probe. Formalities are being completed."
It has now confirmed the arrest, writing, "Narcotics Control Bureau officials take Kshitij Ravi Prasad for medical examination as a part of formalities before his arrest."
