The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Friday brought Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan and the other accused to Arthur Road jail in connection with the cruise ship drug raid case.
A Mumbai court on Thursday had sent Aryan Khan and seven others to judicial custody for 14 days in connection with a drug seizure on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast. Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) took Aryan Khan to its office in Mumbai after producing him before the Esplanade Magistrate court.
The accused were kept in the NCB office in judicial custody because the jail would not accept new inmates at this hour.
The court in Mumbai also said began hearing the bail plea of Aryan Khan on Friday.
The Court further said that the case will now be heard by special Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) court.
As many as 18 arrests have been made in the cruise ship raid case so far. Total 17 have been produced before the court and 18th person is yet to be produced before the Mumbai court.
Achit Kumar, who is the 17th person arrested by the NCB, was today remanded to NCB custody till October 9. His arrest was made after his name was disclosed by Aryan Khan and Arbaz Seth Merchant.
