Mumbai:
Stepping up the attack on the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), Maharashtra Minister Nawab Malik alleges that the Bombay High Court’s bail order for the son of actor Shah Rukh Khan is Aryan and his followers. another proved this to be a “kidnap and ransom case”.
The minister has repeatedly accused the anti-narcotics agency, especially regional director Sameer Wankhede, of supporting the false charges against Aryan Khan and others in the drug case on board. In the latest blow, Mr. Malik used instructions from the supreme court order to target the agency’s investigation.

In the bail order announced today, the court noted that it found no evidence of a conspiracy between Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha to commit a drug-related crime. It also said there was nothing objectionable in their WhatsApp chats.
“There is hardly any positive evidence in the record to convince this Court that all those charged with a common intention consented to the unlawful conduct,” the order read.
“Just because Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha were on the same cruise, that in itself cannot be grounds for a charge of conspiracy against them,” the court added.
Aryan Khan is out on bail three weeks after being arrested in a drug case on a yacht. Arbaaz Merchant and model Munmun Dhamecha have also been released on bail.
Mr Malik added in his post that the incident was “planned in advance but a selfie released in the public domain derailed the plan”. NCP leadership is referring to Aryan Khan’s selfie with KC Gosavi, a private investigator and one of the witnesses in the case. His selfies and videos with Aryan Khan at the NCB office show how easily he approached the superstar’s son and raised questions about the NCB’s investigation. Later, a man claiming to be his bodyguard alleges that Mr. Gosavi and a fellow Sam D’Souza discussed reimbursement in the case, creating a new row that prompted NCB regional director Wankhede fall into the situation.
“Farjiwada is now exposed,” Malik said in a new assault on the anti-narcotics agency investigation.
PTI reported that Mr. Malik issued a statement in which he demanded that Mr. Wankhede be suspended. He said the court questioned the NCB’s arrest of Aryan Khan.
When contacted, Mr Wankhede said he could not comment on the high court order because the matter was a sub-trial and that he also did not want to take Mr Malik’s allegations seriously, PTI reported.
