A special court here on Friday rejected the bail pleas of Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik, arrested by the NCB in connection with a drug-related case pertaining to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, advocate Satish Maneshinde said.
The court also rejected the bail pleas of four other accused in the case — Abdul Basit, Zaid Vilatra, Dipesh Sawant and Samuel Miranda.
All six accused were likely to move the Bombay High Court for bail, Maneshinde added shortly after the ruling.
Special Judge GB Gurao, presiding over cases under the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, rejected their bail applications.
All accused are currently in judicial custody.
