NCB interrogates Deepika Padukone's manager Karishma Prakash in Bollywood drugs probe

Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone’s manager Karishma Prakash on Wednesday reached the Narcotics Control Bureau office in Mumbai after being allegedly untraceable for days. Karishma Prakash was summoned by the NCB after it claimed to have seized 1.7 gm of hashish during a raid at her residence. The agency had said Prakash went missing after she didn’t reply to the summons of the agency. Prakash applied for an anticipatory bail before her questioning on Wednesday. A Mumbai court ordered that Prakash can’t be arrested till November 7.

Prakash was summoned after the NCB alleged that it had seized 1.7 gm of hashish during a search at her house in October-end. As per the agency sources, two bottles of CBD oil, and a cannabis product were found at the manager's residence besides the contraband. According to news agency ANI, NCB has also summoned the employees of KWAN Talent Agency, which has become one of the foci of the Bollywood drug probe. The alleged drug links of Bollywood celebs, including A-listers, came to the fore following the federal agency’s investigation into the death of Rajput on June 14 at his apartment in Mumbai’s residence. Many celebrities including Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Rakul Preet Singh and Shraddha Kapoor have been questioned by NCB.
