As per sources, Rhea Chakraborty's brother Showik Chakraborty was friends with Basit and he had introduced Samuel to him for drugs supply. Basit then introduced Samuel to Zaid. After which, Zaid directly used to supply drugs to Samuel. Sources also added that often Samuel used to send his staff to collect drugs from Zaid and sometimes, he went himself. 


Rhea and Gaurav Arya allegedly exchanged messages about drug consumption. Her deleted WhatsApp chats hinted at a possible drug conspiracy in Sushant's case. 


Gaurav Arya has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and appeared for questioning on Monday and Tuesday. The ED is recording his statement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).


He, however, has claimed he had never met Sushant but said that he had met Rhea once in 2017. He also stated that he has no connection with the Sushant case.
