According to the CBI officials, Rhea, accompanied by brother Showik, arrived at the DRDO guest house around 10.15am Sunday and left at 7.30pm. A CBI source said that the agency questioned her again about the events leading to her exit from Sushant’s Bandra flat June 8.

Sushant was found dead in his apartment in Mumbai June 14. His father KK Singh had filed a case with the Bihar Police against Rhea, her father Indrajit, mother Sandhya, brother Showik, Shruti Modi, house manager Samuel Miranda, friend Siddharth Pithani and unknown others. The case is currently being handled by the CBI.
