Indian actor Rakul Preet Singh has been summoned by Enforcement Directorate (ED) over involvement in the 2017 Tollywood drug and money laundering case.
ED has summoned the Aiyaary star Rakul in connection with a high-end drugs racket. Several celebrities have been questioned in the alleged racket of supplying high-end narcotics such as LSD and MDMA.
Rakul was called in by the authorities back in 2021 as well. She claimed that they do not have any links with drug traffickers or consume any such substance.
Earlier, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) of Telangana’s Prohibition and Excise Department probed around 11 members of the Telugu film industry including Ravi Teja, Charmee Kaur, and Navdeep in the matter.
For the unversed, the drugs racket came to light back in 2017 after customs officials arrested musician Calvin Mascarenhas and two others with drugs worth Rs 30 lakh from their possession. On digging in a little deeper, the authorities reportedly found that a large number of Tollywood celebrities could be involved in this racket.
