She has been ordered to inform the investigating officer if she plans to leave Mumbai. The prime accused has also been asked to report to police for 10 days, at a police station nearest to her. The actor has also been ordered to deposit her passport and not travel outside the country without permission. .
The development came a day after a special NDPS court had extended her custody till October 20.
Sushant’s staff Dipesh Sawant and Samuel Miranda were also granted bail on furnishing of PR bond of Rs.50,000 each. However, Rhea’s brother Showik and alleged drug peddler Abdul Parihar were denied bail and will continue to remain in jail.
Meanwhile, the Central Bureau of Investigation team is back in Mumbai after major developments in the case. The confirmation of Rhea Chakraborty’s neighbour that she had met Sushant is set to be probed by the agency. Apart from that, SSR’s family has also written to the CBI, seeking a fresh panel to analyse the forensics after Dr Sudhir Gupta’s flip flop, from highlighting the ‘forensically unsuitable’ crime scene to declaring it a ‘suicide.’
