MUMBAI: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) probing the case of drugs seizure on the cruise liner involving actor
Shah Rukh Khan’s son
Aryan Khan questioned actor
Chunky Pandey’s actor-daughter Ananya Pandey for around four hours on Thursday and seized her laptop and cell phone. Sources said two more celebrities are likely to be called by the
NCB in the coming days for questioning.
The questioning happened hours after, earlier in the morning, actor Shah Rukh met his son Aryan inside the ‘mulaqat’ room of Arthur Road jail. Shah Rukh spoke to him for 15 minutes via an intercom phone placed on both sides of a glass wall.
In another development, an NCB team on Thursday visited SRK’s bungalow Mannat in Bandra in connection with the Aryan Khan case. They said they had gone to seek some documents related to the case. NCB deputy director
Ashok Mutha Jain clarified there was no raid at Mannat.
Ananya Pandey was questioned after her name cropped up in WhatsApp chats with Aryan, officials said. Officials also carried out a search of Pandey’s house.
Meanwhile, the Bombay high court on Thursday said it would hear Aryan Khan’s bail plea on October 26. His lawyers had filed a bail plea in HC in appeal soon after a special NDPS court on Wednesday denied him bail. The bail pleas of two other accused, Arbaaz Merchant and
Munmun Dhamecha, were also rejected on Wednesday.
The custody of Aryan, Merchant and Dhamecha was on Thursday extended by the special court till October 30.
