Actor Rhea Chakraborty appears before ED in money laundering case
Actor Rhea Chakraborty, accused of
abetting suicide of filmstar Sushant Singh Rajput, appeared before the Enforcement
Directorate (ED) here on Friday in connection with the money
laundering case lodged by it.
The
ED had summoned Rhea Chakraborty for questioning on Friday (August 7), but she
had requested the agency to postpone recording of her statement pending hearing
of her plea filed in the Supreme Court seeking transfer of the case lodged by
the Bihar police to Mumbai.
However,
the ED rejected her request.
"In
view of the fact that the ED has informed the media that the request to
postpone her attendance is rejected, Rhea has appeared before the ED
office," her advocate Satish Maneshinde said.
The
advocate, in a statement, added that Rhea Chakraborty (28), Rajput's
girlfriend, is a law-abiding citizen and would cooperate with the probe.
Rajput
(34) was found hanging on June 14 at his residence in suburban Mumbai.
