Mumbai, Sep 30 (NationPress) The Bombay High Court has granted significant relief to Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty in connection with the Sushant Singh Rajput death case. The court has instructed the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) to return the actress's passport.

To recap, Rhea was detained in a drug-related case in 2020 following the untimely passing of her then-boyfriend, Sushant. She was subsequently granted bail the next month but was mandated to surrender her passport to the NCB.

Recently, Rhea submitted a new petition via her attorney, Ayaz Khan, who contended that the requirement to surrender her passport has caused delays in her professional commitments, resulting in her missing out on numerous projects.

The attorney emphasized that Rhea has adhered to all bail conditions and has never breached any court mandates. He further highlighted that due to her profession, she frequently travels overseas for filming, auditions, and meetings.

In contrast, the NCB opposed Rhea's request, arguing that celebrity status should not confer any special privileges, and raised concerns about the possibility of the accused fleeing.

Justice Neela Gokhale remarked that other defendants in the case had received similar concessions. She acknowledged that Rhea had cooperated throughout the trial, returning from every international trip and complying with her bail conditions.

The court has reinstated Rhea's passport under the stipulation that she must provide the NCB with an active mobile number, attend all court dates, and assist in the expeditious resolution of the ongoing case.

Furthermore, Rhea is required to notify the prosecution agency before any international travel and supply her full itinerary—including hotel and flight information—at least four days before departure.

She must also share her phone number with the prosecution agency, ensure her phone remains powered on at all times, and inform the agency upon her return to India.
