Mumbai/IBNS: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has arrested Sushant Singh Rajput’s house helper and cook Dipesh Sawant in connection with the drug angle in the late actor’s death, reported media.

“NCB has arrested Dipesh Sawant, the house helper of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, in connection with the late actor’s death case,” said KPS Malhotra, Deputy Director, NCB, reported Hindustan Times.

On Friday, the main accused Rhea Chakraborty’s brother Showik Chakraborty and Rajput’s house manager Samuel Miranda were arrested by the NCB under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and remanded to NCB till September 9.

NCB is the third Central agency to join the probe into the death of Sushant, after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

Media reports said Showik will be confronted with his sister Rhea on September 6.

The NCB got into action after the Enforcement Directorate came across chats pertaining to drug consumption, procurement, usage and transportation in connection with the Sushant Singh Rajput death case.
