custody till October 6.
Mr Prasad was arrested by the NCB after questioning in the drugs case linked to Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death.

"Prasad was produced before the special Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS)Act court on Saturday on the expiry of his NCB custody. The court remanded him in judicial custody till October 6," said special public prosecutor Atul Sarpande.
