Mumbai, Oct 8: Actor Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan’s bail plea has been rejected. Aryan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha bail pleas were heard in the Fort court for having a drug party on the cruise ship. Earlier the hearing started at around 12.45 pm, which lasted till 2.15 pm.
Meanwhile, NCB has sent all the 6 male accused including Aryan to Arthur Road Jail and both the female accused to Byculla Jail. Aryan has been kept in the Quarantine Cell. Although his RT PCR test has come negative, according to the new guidelines of the jail, there is a rule to keep it in a quarantine cell for 7 days. In fact, the court had sent all the accused to 14 days judicial custody yesterday, but the hearing went on till late and there is no entry in the jail after 6 pm, so 8 accused including Aryan were kept in the lockup of NCB.
In this case, today both the parties are arguing by referring to different cases whether the hearing on the bail application should be held in this court or not. During this, Aryan’s lawyer Satish Manshinde said that if there is a dispute, then the judge should have referred the matter to a higher bench, but unfortunately it did not happen. Manshinde has also argued that in cases of small quantities of drugs, the High Court grants bail, then nothing has been found with my client. He also said that why is the central government so hasty in this case? Responding to him, ASG Anil Singh said that he cannot say that. Notably, NCB has so far arrested 18 people in the Cruise drug party case.
