A team of Mumbai police reached the residence of actress Rhea Chakraborty, who is accused of abetting actor Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide, in Mumbai. And now, her family is being dragged in the issue and her father was pulled out of the house by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning.
The police team reached Chakrabortys house as per the request made by the ED, the official said.
"The ED requested the Mumbai police to reach their house and escort Rhea's father Indrajit out as it wants to question him," the police official said.
"Accordingly, some police personnel reached their residence in the afternoon and took her father along for a questioning by the central agency," he added.

The ED is probing a money laundering angle into the death of Rajput and has questioned Rhea twice earlier.
Meanwhile Rhea is asking for police protection for her family as they are getting death threats.
