The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is continuing its probe into a drug case that has created a sensation in the Telugu film industry. Kelvin, the drug supplier in the case, was brought to the ED office and questioned. The officials collected the bank account details of Kelvin and arrested two more accused, Wahid and Kudhusu, from pathabasthi.
The ED authorities are looking into the transactions between the accused and the actor Nandhu. The actor was questioned for 4 hours.
Three Tollywood celebrities — director Puri Jagannadh, Rakul Preet Singh and Charmee Kaur — who appeared before the investigation agency have claimed that they neither have any links with drug traffickers nor did they consume it.
ED has booked a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and is keenly examining the financial history of people being called for interrogation. SIT formed by the Excise department had earlier filed 11 chargesheets in which only drug traffickers, mostly Africans, were named.
