Khan was released from Arthur Road Jail on October 30, followed by Dhamecha and Merchant the following day.
Arya Khan was invited as a guest on a cruise by organizers.
HC in the order of 14 pages said it “must be sensitive to the fact that there must be a basic material in the form of evidence so as to prove the case of conspiracy to applicants.” Only because applicants traveled with shipping, “by itself it cannot be called a satisfying foundation to hit the provisions of Part 29 (conspiracy) to the three,” HC reasoned.
It refused the submission of NCBs carried out through additional lawyers General Anil Singh that there was a conspiracy and because “the number of cumulative commercial drugs was caused by the people accused,” “intention” of the trio to commit to narcotics and psychotropic drugs (NDPS) laws must be Considered and guarantee was rejected.

) And there is no meeting of mind.
“No ingredients are noted to conclude that applicants have hatched conspiracies” to commit drug violations, it is difficult to conclude at this stage that they are involved in commercial quantity violations, therefore strict provisions such as section 37 are placed a greater examination in court Before granting the guarantee “will be Prima Facie not interested in this case.” It is difficult to conclude that applicants are involved in commercial quantity violations, “said Justice Sambre.
Justice Sampre clarified that the ‘statement of recognition’ which was recorded based on Section 67 of the NDPS Law only Can be considered for the purpose of the investigation and “it cannot be used as a tool to draw inference that applicants have committed a violation Acceptable KTI.
