Ahead of Aryan Khan's bail order hearing on Wednesday, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) submitted more WhatsApp chats in court. "Police has found drug-related WhatsApp chats that are allegedly between Aryan Khan and a debut actress," the ANI quoted the NCB in a tweet. However, the actress's name has not been revealed.
A special Mumbai court will pronounce its order on Aryan's bail plea at 2:45pm on Wednesday.
Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan, who is currently lodged in the Arthur Road jail in Mumbai, was arrested on October 3. Aryan was arrested after the NCB raided a cruise ship and busted a drugs party off the coast of Mumbai. He was held under Section 8C, 20B, 27 read with 35 of the NDPS Act. Besides Aryan, Munmun Dhamecha, Arbaaz Merchant, Ismeet Singh, Mohak Jaswal, Gomit Chopra, Nupur Sarika, and Vikrant Chhokar were arrested from the cruise.
While seeking the custody of Aryan, Munmun and Arbaaz, the NCB had earlier said there was evidence to show a nexus between the arrested persons and suppliers and peddlers of drugs and banned narcotic substances regularly. Prima facie investigation, the NCB said, revealed that there is incriminating material in the form of WhatsApp chats and more.
Shah Rukh Khan has been receiving support from fans and celebrities. Twinkle Khanna, author and wife of actor Akshay Kumar, compared Aryan's arrest to one of the episodes of Netflix's popular show Squid Games.
