The cruise will come after 2.45 pm today on the bail application of Aryan Khan, son of actor Shah Rukh Khan, accused in the drugs party case. In today's hearing, Aryan's case is listed at number 19. VV Patil's Bench of the Special NDPS Court in Mumbai had reserved the verdict in the matter after a long debate on October 13 and 14. It is believed that by noon it will be decided whether Aryan will remain in jail or will be released on bail.
However, earlier, while reserving the judgement, Judge Patil had said that he is busy on October 20 as well, but he will try to be able to hear the bail on that day. Therefore, it is believed that initially, the judge will present only the operative part of this decision. Aryan, arrested on October 3, has been lodged in Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail since October 8. Aryan has got the batch of prisoner number 956 in the jail. Aryan's 14-day judicial custody also ends on October 21.
In Aryan's case, the NCB had initially registered a case for drug consumption, they had invoked Sections 27, 28, and 29. Section 28 is an attempt to consume, section 29 is a conspiracy to consume and section 27 is for consumption.
Who is the lawyer appearing for the accused, NCB?
ASG Anil Singh is looking after this matter on behalf of NCB and is being assisted by Advocate Shriram Shirsat in court. Shirsat was also assisting ASG in the Riya Chakraborty drugs case in the Bombay High Court. SPP Advait Sethna is also representing NCB.
Senior advocates Satish Maneshinde and Amit Desai are appearing for the accused, especially Aryan Khan. Both are considered to be Mumbai's veteran lawyers in such cases. Manshinde has given relief to Salman from the court in the Sushant drugs case, Riya Chakkrili and Desai in the hit and run case. This is the reason that during the hearing of October 14, there was a tremendous fight between the two sides. However, there will be no debate or cross-examination in the court before today's verdict. Today's verdict will decide who had the upper hand.
NCB's argument against bail
Earlier, opposing Aryan's bail, Anil Singh had said that records and evidence show that Aryan has been taking drugs regularly for the past few years. The ASG said that Aryan is quite influential and if released on bail, there is a possibility of tampering with evidence or running away from the law. Singh further said that Aryan and his friend Arbaaz have been arrested based on solid evidence. Foreign links to drugs racket have to be investigated. This is a big conspiracy that needs to be investigated. Arbaaz used to take drugs from Arbaaz, so he should not be given bail. The NCB also placed a WhatsApp chat in the court and claimed that the investigation of this chat has revealed that Aryan Khan has an important role in the drugs case.
Aryan's drug chat with the actress may get stuck on bail
In some of Aryan's chats with NCB, he is seen discussing drugs with an emerging actress. During the hearing on October 14, the NCB presented it before the court as evidence. It is also being said that this actress was present on the cruise and initially NCB had let it go. In the coming time, this actress can also be questioned by the NCB team. This conversation of Aryan with the actress can put a big hindrance in his bail.
The defense put this argument for Aryan's bail
Earlier on October 13, the hearing went on for about 3 hours, but the debate could not be completed. During this, the defense argued on the sections imposed on the accused from the Panchnama of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) to get Aryan bail, while the NCB opposed the bail and presented its side. He said that no drugs were recovered from Aryan. Nor has NCB received any cash. The person who invited Aryan to the party is not arrested. Aryan has no connection with Munmun Dhamecha.
Desai's allegation – Aryan was forcibly taken a statement
Aryan's lawyer Amit Desai has also described Aryan's confession as a forced statement. Desai said that the NCB is saying that Aryan has confessed that he was about to take charas with Arbaaz, but the court also knows how to get things done.
BJP MLA prayed for Aryan's bail
BJP MLA from Ghatkopar West assembly seat in Maharashtra, Ram Kadam has prayed for the release of jailed Aryan Khan. Ram Kadam said, getting bail is a fundamental right under the constitution and law. But the Uddhav government has stood in support of the drug mafia. Ram Kadam tweeted, 'Praying that Aryan Khan gets bail today. Getting bail is a fundamental right under the Constitution and the law. This is not a fight against one particular individual, but the war against drugs of the entire human race.
