The ED came into action after the case was registered against Rhea and her family members. The team also questioned Chartered Accountant Sandeep Sridhar. Rhea’s associate Samuel Miranda and her CA Ritesh Shah were also quizzed in relation with Sushant’s suicide case.

Also, reportedly, Sushant’s friend Siddharth Pithani will be quizzed on August 8.
