Deepika Padukone's manager Karishma Prakash is being questioned at the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) office in Mumbai in the drugs case

Mumbai: Deepika Padukone's manager Karishma Prakash is being questioned at the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) office in Mumbai in the drugs case linked to actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death.

Fearing arrest after the NCB summoned her in the case, Karishma had filed an anticipatory bail plea.

The NCB, which had questioned Karishma earlier in September, summoned her again "to join the investigation" but she did not turn up and was reportedly ‘untraceable’ earlier this week.

According to NCB sources, she was summoned again after the central agency allegedly seized 1.7 gm of hashish during a search at her residence here last month.

The NCB, which is probing alleged nexus between drug peddlers and Bollywood celebrities which came to light after actor Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide in June, had summoned Prakash on October 28.

The NCB has already recorded statements of Deepika and fellow actors Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor in the case.
