The Mumbai High Court will resume hearing Aryan Khan’s bail request for drug seizures on board the cruise ship. The hearing will resume at 2:30 this afternoon.
At the hearing on Khan’s bail request on Tuesday — the third time since his arrest on October 3 — the 23-year-old lawyer told the High Court that Aryan should be released on bail because no drugs were found on him .
They also stated that the WhatsApp conversation used by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has nothing to do with the cruise ship where Aryan Khan was arrested three weeks ago. Former Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi is a member of the senior legal team seeking bail for the son of actor Shah Rukh Khan.
Aryan Khan is currently being held in Mumbai’s Arthur Road Prison on charges of alleged consumption and conspiracy under the strict Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) law. Rohatgi, who represents Aryan, argued that his client was invited on the cruise ship as a special guest, and no drugs were recovered from him, and no medical examination was performed to show that he was taking drugs. “There is no recovery, no consumption, I admit that I was wrongly arrested,” he emphasized.
