I am relieved, and so must my clients be, including Shah Rukh Khan. The truth has prevailed. Ultimately, there was no material to charge this young man (Aryan Khan) or arrest him. I am very relieved and am sure that the young man and his father are equally relieved.

Sources: Govt has asked the Competent Authority to take appropriate action against former NCB official Sameer Wankhede, for his shoddy investigation into the Aryan Khan drugs haul case. The Government is already taking action in the case of Sameer Wankhede's fake caste certificate case.
The Arrest and Detention of Aryan Khan for 26 days was unjustified more particularly when he was Not found in possession of any Drugs , there was no evidence of any kind, there was no material of any nature of violation of any law much less the NDPS Act. We are happy that the Special Investigation Team under Shri Sanjay Kumar Singh investigated the case in an objective manner and decided not to file a complaint against Aryan Khan for lack of Sufficient Evidence. God is Great.
