Sushant Singh Rajput's death in 2020 sent shockwaves across the industry. The investigation that followed made massive headlines. Rhea Chakraborty came under the radar after the actor's family filed a complaint against her. Later, a look out circular was issued by the CBI against Rhea Chakraborty and her family members in relationship to Sushant Singh Rajput's death case. Now, the actress has received a big relief as Supreme Court has issued an order in her favour.

Rhea Chakraborty's gets big relief

As per the latest reports in entertainment news, Supreme Court has rejected the plea made by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Maharashtra Government and Bureau of Immigration. The plea challenged the order passed by the Bombay High Court nullifying the look out notice against Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik, father Lt Col Indrajit Chakraborty (retd) and others. As per the reports in Live Law, justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan called the petition 'frivolous' and observed that it was made only because the party concerned was 'high-profile'. The justice has also said to have warned the CBI counsel of exemplary cost also emphasising on how both individuals have strong ties within society.

It was back in 2020 that an look out circular was issued against Rhea Chakraborty after Sushant Singh Rajput's family filed an FIR against her in Patna. In February, this year, the Bombay High Court nullified the notice enabling her to travel abroad for a meet-and-greet event. When a LOC is issued against an individual by an agency, it restricts them from traveling abroad and leaving the country. The Bureau of Immigration then has the right to either detain the individual or inform the agency about the person leaving the country.
