File | Photo Credit: PTI A special court in Mumbai has ordered the defreezing of the bank accounts of actor Rhea Chakraborty and her brother, accused in a drugs case, citing the NCB’s failure to follow procedural requirements under the NDPS Act. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had frozen the duo’s accounts as part of its probe into a drug-related case linked to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Rhea Chakraborty and her brother, Showik, represented by lawyer Ayaz Khan, argued that the NCB failed to follow the mandatory procedural requirements under Section 68F (for seizure or freezing of properties) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985.
