New Delhi: Bollywood actresses Sara Ali Khan, Rakul Preet Singh and fashion designer Simmone Khambatta are said to be under the scanner of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) following Rhea Chakraborty’s confession.

As per media reports, Rhea has said that these actresses would consume drugs with her and Sushant. The NCB is likely to summon 25 prominent Bollywood stars in the ongoing drug probe linked to Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.

The NCB arrested Rhea on Tuesday, after three days of interrogation, on charges of procuring drugs for Sushant. Sushant was found dead at his Bandra apartment on June 14.

In her bail application, Rhea has alleged that during her interrogation by the NCB, she was “coerced” into making “self-incriminating confessions.” She claimed that she has not committed any crime whatsoever and has been falsely implicated in the case.

The NCB is probing the drug angle in this case under criminal sections of the NDPS Act. Various angles surrounding the death of Sushant Singh Rajput are being probed by three central agencies- the NCB, the ED and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
