Aditya Alva, Vivek Oberoi’s brother-in-law is also wanted by the cops, but somehow has managed to give them the slip. Sometime back, Oberoi’s residence was also searched by the cops.

Up north, Deepika Padukone’s manager Karishma Prakash was served summons by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) but she remains untraceable, as per NCB officials. This investigation is pertaining to the Sushant Singh Rajput case.
