Riya Chakraborty has suffered a major setback from the sessions court in the drug racket case. The sessions court has dismissed the bail application of all the accused, including Riya, his brother Showik Chakraborty. Riya’s bail application was opposed by the Narcotics Control Bureau. The NCB told the court that she could influence the investigation if Riya gets bail. A variety of arguments were presented by Riya’s lawyers. But the prosecution managed to prove why Riya Chakraborty and other accused cannot be granted bail.
