The NCB’s probe into the drug angle started post the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput in 2020. The prime accused Rhea Chakraborty was arrested in September, and also the agency called many Bollywood A-listers including actors Deepika Padukone, her manager Karishma Prakash, Sara Ali Khan, Rakul Preet Singh and Shraddha Kapoor to investigate the drug angle.

Last year in October, the central agency arrested Agisilaos Demetriades. For the unversed, he is an African citizen. The NCB had found his connection with drug peddlers in the drug nexus and also allegedly found drugs after they raided a resort in Lonavala. The anti-narcotics agency confirmed that Agisilaos was a member of a Bollywood drug syndicate. He was arrested under Section 27 (Punishment for financing illicit traffic and harbouring offender), It is the most stringent section of the NDPS Act. In December, a special narcotics court in Mumbai granted him bail on a surety of Rs 50,000. He was also asked to submit his passport and not to leave the city without informing the Narcotics Control Bureau.
