It was an Instagram post that landed Siddharth Pithani, Sushant Singh Rajput's roommate, in the Narcotics Control Bureau's (NCB) net. He was arrested last Thursday in connection with the drug case related to the actor's death, in Hyderabad. The NCB had been looking for him since August 2020.

Pithani, who was present in the house when Rajput allegedly committed suicide, had disappeared from Mumbai and eventually deleted his account from the social networking site. However, in the month of April Pithani resurfaced with his new insta account @pithanisiddharth that the NCB immediately tracked.
