Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan has received bail on the Mumbai drugs case. He was arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau(NCB) on October 3. Aryan sought bail from the Bombay High Court after both Magistrate and Sessions Court had rejected his bail plea.
Aryan Khan did not get bail yesterday. Yesterday advocates Amit Desai, Mukul Rohatgi and Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh, argued on behalf of the accused. Mr Desai, appearing for accused Arbaaz Merchant, said the court was misled into believing it was a conspiracy case during the first remand. He said the arrested persons must be informed of the grounds of their arrest.
Aryan Khan’s advocate Mukul Rohatgi on Tuesday told the Bombay High Court, “The applicant is 23-year-old and was earlier in California in the USA. There was a cruise from Mumbai to Goa, and he was invited on the cruise as a guest by one Prateek Gaba. There was no recovery from the applicant, and there wasn’t anything in his possession. There was no occasion to arrest my client.”
Aryan Khan has been in jail since October 8. He was detained after drug raids on a cruise ship party on October 2 by the NCB. Aryan Khan has been denied bail twice before.
