Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty’s bank accounts will be de-freeze, said a Mumbai court. A special court under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act was hearing the plea of Rhea. As per the pela, Rhea had requested the court to allow de-freezing of her bank accounts as well as to release her laptop and cell phone which have been under the possession of Narcotics Control Burau (NCB) ever since the case started after the death of the actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Rhea was booked for a drug case which is being probed in regard to the Rajput’s death.

Special Judge, DB Mane in his order said that since there was no strong objection from the respondent’s side, which is NCB, the court will allow de-freezing of Rhea’s bank accounts and fixed deposits (FDs). However, there were certain conditions that were laid for the de-freezing. The court said that Rhea will have to maintain the balance amount as shown in the court last year on September 16, till the conclusion of the trial. Rhea was represented by her lawyer, Satish Maneshinde.
