Mumbai: In the detention application that is looking for Bollywood actor prisoners Shah Rukh Khan, Arya Khan, Arbaz Merchant, and Munmun Dhamecha, NCB said the trio was arrested for consumption, sales and purchasing drugs and psychotropic (NDPS) Act, 1985.
However, an official said That Khan has been ordered only for consumption based on part 27 of the law, which pulls a maximum sentence of one year or with a fine that can reach Rs 20,000.
Khan, Merchant and Dhamecha were picked up on Saturday night and were questioned at the NCB office on Pier Ballard.
“Khan apologized when we asked him to accompany us to the NCB office,” said an official.
They were taken for medical examinations at JJ Hospital at 4 pm on Sundays.
Khan wears a t-shirt and a black hat and wore a face mask.
They were taken back to the NCB office in 40 minutes and was produced before the Saturday vacation court at night.
NCB officials said that they did not recover the contraband of Khan, but found a small amount of Charas in merchant shoes.
Duo shared a room on a cruise ship, NCB said.
The detention application sent in court states that the NCB has found the WhatsApp chat “clearly shows the Nexus of those captured with regular suppliers and vendors”.
NCB Counsel Advaits Sethna argues for their prisoners, while Satish Maneshinde said the police returned for a supreme violation would be unfair.
Looking for trio prisoners, Sethna submitted that while some are produced on Sundays, others will be produced in one or two days, so he wants two days “reasonable prisoners” because the NCB has captured the supplier and wants to investigate “the link displayed” through the WhatsApp chat ” .
But Maneshinde said no one was proven to be found in Khan.
“He was invited by the organizer.
He did not have a boarding pass, “he said, adding that Khan’s cellphone was examined but there seemed to be nothing significant found on it.
Zonal Director NCB Sameer Wankhede said if needed, they would look for more custody of Khan in the session court on Monday.
Khan and Merchants were given free entries on cruise ships and committees hoping to take advantage of the results of the former celebrity to advance their business interests, said an official.
There are six organizers for any traveling trips from Rs 60,000 to Rs 3 Lakh for tickets.
“Owner The Austrian ship has been called, “said a NCB officer.
Officials said they had worked on information that drugs would be consumed and raided the cordelia cruise ship.” We have done it for the past 15 days.
We visited the International Cruise Terminal, which was generated as a passenger and when entering the ship, we revealed our identity to the private security guard, “said an official.
NCB said that in the room, they found material to facilitate consumption of drugs such as the joint ready rolls, paper and the like.
“Therefore, we need to stipulate if the committee is not aware of the consumption of drugs,” said an official.
Jurgen Bailom, CEO and President, Waterways Leisure Tourism Pvt Ltd, said, “Cordelia Cruises at all, directly or Indirect, connected to this incident.
Cordelia Cruises has rented its ship for private events to the event management company based in Delhi …
we …
curse all such actions …
and work with the authorities “.
On Sunday, Bailon visited the NCB office where the statement was recorded.
