Mumbai [Maharashtra} : Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh, moved the High Court after a special court denied him bail last week. The HC begins the hearing of his bail plea after the NCB submitted its reply against the star kid’s bail application. In his appeal in the HC against the special court order, the 23-year-old said the Narcotics Control Bureau is misinterpreting his WhatsApp chats. In addition, he claimed no contraband was recovered from him after the NCB raided the ship on October 3. The NCB in its reply opposing the bail stated that “Aryan is not just drug consumer, but also involved in drug trafficking, tampering witnesses.” At present, he is lodged at the Arthur Road Jail along with another accused Arbaaz Merchant. Whereas, Munmun Dhamecha is at Byculla women prison. Meanwhile, fans of the Bollywood actor have gathered outside High Court to show their support.
The Mumbai Drug Bust has got more layered lately. The NCB has ordered a vigilance inquiry into the claims made by a witness in the cruise drugs case of an extortion bid of Rs 25 crore by some agency officials, including its Mumbai zonal director Sameer Wankhede, and others for letting off accused Aryan. Wankhede has reached Delhi, however, the purpose of his visit is still unclear.
