NCB quizzes Deepika’s ex-manager in drugs case

Mumbai, Nov 4 : The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Wednesday questioned actress Deepika Padukone’s former manager Karishma Prakash in connection with a drugs case linked to the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
The development comes a day after she was asked by a Mumbai court to appear before the NCB. Prakash had applied for anticipatory bail on Sunday, after which the special court gave her interim relief from arrest till November 7.
Prakash had been untraceable after the drug enforcement agency summoned her for questioning as it found some hashish and CBD oil from her premises during the raids conducted last month.
According to NCB sources, Prakash appeared before the NCB earlier in the day and was questioned about her whereabouts when she went untraceable and was also asked about the reason of the CBD oil and hashish found at her home.
The sources further said that NCB also asked her about the names of the drug peddlers who were found to be linked with her.
Earlier in the day, Vijay Subramaniam, co-founder and CEO of KWAN, in a statement said, “Prakash tendered her resignation on October 21 with immediate effect and it was accepted.”
