The SIT sleuths of the Excise And Enforcement Directorate grilled Tollywood actor Ravi Shankar Raju Bhupatiraju, alias Ravi Teja, as part of the interrogation into the drugs case, in the Abkari Bhavan on Friday.
It is learnt that the interrogation started at 10:30 am. SIT officials asked Ravi Teja how he had links with Calvin and Zeeshan, and whether he dealt in drugs with his own brothers Bharath and Raghu.
The SIT asked the actor if Calvin was known to him, and what work he had with the latter. They also sought to know where he stayed when he had no film shootings, which pubs he visited frequently and how long he had known Puri Jagannath for.
It is further learnt that the SIT sleuths asked Ravi Teja's makeup man Srinivasa Raju how he had purchased three houses within one year.
It is learnt that the actor was cooperating with the interrogators, and didn't take lunch and had dry fruits instead.
Besides Ravi Teja, the SIT officials examined Syyed Younis and Taubeer Ahmed.
On Saturday the SIT sleuths will interrogate Srinivasa Rao from 10:30 am.
