Nawab Malik — Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) minister Nawab Malik on Monday demanded that the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) prove the claims made by some unnamed officials that Aryan Khan had expressed ‘remorse’ at his behaviour while detained at Arthur Road Central Jail. According to unconfirmed reports in some sections of the media, Aryan reportedly underwent a “counselling session” in jail with the NCB teams recently and it was claimed that he was purportedly “full of guilt and remorse” over the recent incidents that led to his arrest and custody since October 2.

Aryan Khan — Malik brought up how the reports claimed that Aryan, the son of superstar Shah Rukh Khan, also allegedly promised NCB sleuths that he would ‘behave’ in the future. Trashing these reports, NCP national spokesperson Malik said the central narcotics agency should make public the video in which Aryan has allegedly made such statements. “When did he say this? Did the NCB team go to the Arthur Road Jail? They must produce the video evidence of this,” Malik said. “It’s high time the NCB stops planting such fake stories. Let the truth emerge and it will wash away all the lies being bundled around till now.” Image Credit: ANI

Aryan Khan in a police van after his court session in Mumbai — A day earlier, a senior Shiv Sena leader urged the Supreme Court to order a probe into the Narcotics Control Bureau and its alleged violation of Aryan’s fundamental rights in the case. Making the plea under Article 32 of the Constitution, Kishore Tiwari asked Chief Justice NV Ramana to intervene into the manner where the “biased” NCB has been “hounding” film personalities and other celebrities. He said that the Special NDPS Court (Mumbai) deferring the verdict in the bail plea of Aryan and other accused until October 20, while citing public holidays, had subjected the accused “to big humiliation and kept in jail in an undemocratic and illegal way” for 17 nights.

Drugs worth crores were seized from Mundra Port. Where is this Mundra port situated?” he asked, referring to India’s largest commercial port in the state of Gujarat. Image Credit: REUTERS
