The Mumbai Police personnel, who are tasked with protecting Rhea on her commutation from residence to the office of probing agencies, apparently struggled to keep the aggressive media personnel at bay.
Rhea was summoned by the Narcotics bureau to question her in connection to the drugs allegedly supplied to Sushant. She was summoned a day after the agency arrested her brother Showik Chakraborty and the late actor's cook Dipesh Sawant.
Sushant, 34, known for his role in several Bollywood movies, died by suicide on June 14. The central agencies were assigned the probe after the bereaved family approached the police in Patna, alleging a foul play behind his death. The Bihar government subsequently recommended a CBI investigation into the case.
