Comedian Bharti Singh arrested by NCB, the agency says she and her husband accepted consumption of cannabis
Comedian Bharti Singh has been arrested after questioning by the Narcotics Control Bureau in Mumbai. Ms. Singh and her husband, Harsh Limbachiyaa, were taken to the NCB's Mumbai office for questioning after the anti-drug agency recovered a "small quantity of cannabis" during a search of their home this morning.
Visuals from outside their residence - an apartment complex in Andheri - showed Ms. Singh being driven away in a red Mercedes, while Mr. Limbachiyaa was taken in a white NCB van. Ms. Singh, on arriving at the NCB's office, told reporters: "They have called us for some questioning, that's all."
"She (Ms. Singh) and her husband have been detained for questioning about possession of narcotics substances," Sameer Wankhede, one of the investigating officials, told news agency ANI earlier.
