Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, did not get relief on Monday in the Drugs Party case on the cruise. The court said, ‘The investigation is very important and it should be done. This is beneficial to both the accused and the investigators. Along with this, orders have been given to Aryan Khan and his friend Arbaaz Merchant also to Munmun Dhamecha. They are in custody of NCB till Thursday.
Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha had tears in their eyes as soon as the judge gave this order. It is worth noting that the Narcotics Control Bureau that is NCB had sought remand till 11 October for all the accused including Aryan.
During the debate on the remand of Aryan, Arbaaz and Munmun, ASG Anil Singh had said that through the chat it is known that there is complicity of the international cartel. The plot layers need to be opened. Banned substances have been found from them, some more arrests have been made on the information received from them.

ASG had said that the accused have used multiple code names in their chats, we want to decode them, so it needs a detailed investigation. To know the truth more interrogation is needed and for that we need custody. We have arrested one more person today, they are a group. Admittedly, these are bailable offences, but a Bombay High Court judgment has said that all offenses of NDPS are not bailable. He said that this group was acting like a gang. Unless we investigate customers, how can we find out who the supplier is and who was helping with the money?
On the other hand, lawyer for Aryan, Satish Maneshinde had said, ‘No seizure has taken place from me (from Aryan). My friend Arbaaz Merchant has claimed to have got 6 grams, but this is also a small quantity. The rest was not recovered from any of us and I have no connection with anyone. In this case I cannot be linked with complete seizure. I never used any drugs in my entire stay. Drug chat with friends does not mean indulging in drug smuggling.’
Maneshinde said, “Yesterday 2 days custody was sought and I did not file my bail application because today I had mentioned verbally about my intention to argue on bail and I agreed to one day custody Was. When I was abroad, I had some chats in my phone, this is saying that I have links with some international cartel. I never took any drugs during my stay abroad. There is nothing on my record whose photographs have been given to the court, which indicates that I was in contact with the international drug syndicate. All the sections included in the FIR are bailable.”
