Mumbai: Police Special Investigation Team Mumbai (sitting) has called actor manager Shah Rukh Khan Pooja Dadlani on Monday, but he failed to mention ‘health problems’.
Chikky Pandey, a brother of actor Chunkey Pandey, who was one of the witnesses in the case of the breasts of the cruise drug K P Gosavi had been contacted to contact Dadlani, also failed to appear before sitting, coving Covid-19.
Pandey reportedly helped Gosavi to connect with Dadlani, said the source.
Sitting was formed by Mumbai police after the Prabhakar screen, Gosavi’s personal bodyguard, filed a complaint to the Marg Marg Police.
Sail has alleged that he had heard Gosavi spoke by telephone with one Sam D’Souza about extorting money in drug cases and Payment of Rs 8 Crore to be made to Zonal Head NCB Sameer Wankhede.
Then, three more applications on similar lines were handed over to the TMRA Marg Police.
D’Souza claimed Dadlani paying Rs 50 Lakh but the money was returned after they realized Gosavi, who promised to prevent the arrest of the son of Khan Aryan, was a cheat.
Milin ACP Khetle (Azad Maidan Division) has led a sitting probe and will submit his report to the police commissioner.
Sit has a statement so far recorded from 15 people and is likely to call more people.
The sailing report, Hoteler Ranjitsingh Bindra and one Mayur Ghule has been recorded.
One Sunil Patil appeared before the Mumbai police sit on Sunday night to give his statement.
Sitting also recorded someone else’s statement, Vijay Pagare, who claimed to be a privent for pre-attack discussion and told the city police that Arya was framed by certain individuals to make money.
