“In view of the fact that the ED has informed the media that the request to postpone her attendance is rejected, Rhea has appeared before the ED office,” her advocate Satish Maneshinde was quoted saying by a news agency.
The Bihar police had on July 25 based on a complaint filed by Rajput’s father K K Singh lodged an FIR against Rhea Chakraborty, her parents – Indrajit and Sandhya Chakraborty, her brother Showik Chakraborty and two others – Samuel Miranda and Shruti Modi. They were booked on charges of criminal conspiracy, cheating, abetment to suicide and wrongful confinement.
The ED on July 31 lodged a case of money laundering after K K Singh alleged financial irregularities in Sushant’s bank accounts and transfer of Rs 15 crore.
