On Monday, a lawyer approached Mumbai Police. The lawyer asked to register an FIR against NCB regional director Sameer Wankhede and five others. Meanwhile, the FIR will be registered for alleged extortion in a narcotics case on a cruise. However, an officer provided this information.
According to the official, advocate Sudha Dwivedi has given a written complaint to the MRA Marg police station. She has sent a copy of the complaint to the Joint Commissioner of Police, Milind Bharambhe. And at the same time, the State Anti-Corruption Bureau also received a copy of the complaint. However, in the complaint, she has requested to register an FIR. Another officer said that we have received the complaint, but no FIR has been registered so far.
The NCB has ordered a vigilance inquiry into the cruise drugs case. A witness claims an extortion bid of Rs 25 crore by Mumbai zonal director Sameer Wankhede. Sameer including five others asked for money for letting off accused Aryan Khan, son of Shah Rukh Khan. At the same time, an IRS officer came under fresh attack from Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik on Monday.
Wankhede failed to get relief related to an affidavit on the extortion claims made by the independent witness, Prabhakar Sail. Prabhakar has claimed a threat to his life. However, he has been provided police protection by the Maharashtra government.
The Bombay High Court will hear Aryan Khan's bail application today. After the special court rejected his plea on October 20, his legal team moved to the high court. Aryan Khan's bail plea has been listed at serial number 57. Meanwhile, the bail plea of co-accused Arbaaz Merchant has been listed at serial number 64. The Narcotics Control Bureau will oppose the bail of all accused. It remains to be seen whether Aryan Khan will finally walk out of jail or not.
