Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan is having sleepless nights in the Arthur Road jail. Even in his worst nightmare, he did not think of spending so much time inside the jail.
According to reports, the messaging app WhatsApp has played the villain in Aryan Khan’s case. The star kid has been taken into custody on the basis of his WhatsApp chats. Many celebrities and even the general public is calling out the unlawful arrest of Aryan Khan. But the court as well as the anti-drugs agency, Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) is not letting Aryan come out on a bail. Now, some new allegations have popped up that indicate zonal director of NCB, Sameer Wankhede’s foul play in the entire incident.
A witness in the Aryan Khan’s drugs case named Prabhakar Sail has alleged that he was made to sign 9-10 blank pages by Wankhede and that he also heard murmurs of large transactions. A video of the witness has surfaced on social media. In the clip, Sail has claimed that he is ‘scared of Wankhede’. He also said that he was there with KP Gosavi on the night the raid took place and his signatures were taken on blank papers by the NCB officials. “There was discussion of bribe to Sameer Wankhede,” he said in Marathi in the now-viral video. He also said he collected Rs. 50 lakh in cash.
For the unknown, Gosavi is the same person whose selfie with Aryan Khan went viral after the latter was detained by the NCB. Prabhakar is the driver of KP Gosavi.
After the evidence against Wankhede surfaced online, filmmaker Hansal Mehta who had previously also voiced his support for Aryan and his father, actor Shah Rukh Khan demanded Sameer Wankhede’s resignation until he is proven innocent of the allegations made against him.
“Sameer Wankhede must resign until these (serious) charges are disproved. Why should the onus of proving innocence only be upon those he arrests,” Mehta wrote in a tweet.
Earlier, Hansal had shared his views on the Aryan Khan case and had written, “It is painful for a parent having to deal with a child getting into trouble. It gets compounded when people begin to arrive at judgments before the law takes its course. It is disrespectful and unfair to the parent and to the parent-child relationship. With you @srk.”
For the unversed, Aryan was arrested along with a few others on October 3 after the NCB raided a cruise ship off the shore of Mumbai. His bail plea has been rejected multiple times till now.
