The front page of the Indian Express had a short piece yesterday on how after questioning actor Rhea Chakraborty for almost 18 hours, the Enforcement Directorate did not find “any substantial transfers” to her from the bank account of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
To anyone who’s been tracking the media circus following Rajput’s death in June, the story follows weeks of allegations against Chakraborty, who used to date Rajput. She was painted as a “gold digger” who practised “black magic”, and TV news channels produced “incriminating evidence” of “huge transactions” made by Rajput for Chakraborty, and proposed “an alleged money laundering angle” — which is what the ED had stepped in to investigate.
