Shah Rukh Khan To Take Legal Action Against NCB Officer Sameer Wankhede For Staging His Son, Aryan

Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau after they had raised a Mumbai cruise ship on October 2, 2021. It was alleged that Aryan was on the ship and his WhatsApp chats proved his connection with drugs. After a 26-day-long battle in the alleged drugs case, on October 28, 2021, Aryan Khan was granted bail. After getting bail on October 28, 2021 evening, it was on October 30, 2021, when Aryan was released from the Arthur Road jail.

Amidst Aryan Khan’s jail, the NCB zonal officer, Sameer Wankhede was reported as being a part of alleged bribery in Aryan's case. Reports were rife that Sameer was reportedly involved in a Rs. 25 crores deal in Aryan Khan's case after one of NCB's independent witnesses accused him of taking Rs. 8 crores as bribery in the high profile cruise drug bust. On October 27, 2020, the Mumbai Police had appointed an ACP-level officer to investigate the allegations levelled against Sameer Wankhede.

On November 20, 2021, the Bombay High Court had ruled out Aryan Khan’s involvement in the alleged drug case because of which he was in jail for 26 days. Journalist, Faye D'Souza quoted portal, Live Law, which reports the Bombay High Court's hearing LIVE as:

"No positive evidence of conspiracy between Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha to commit drug related offences. Nothing objectionable found in the WhatsApp chats of Aryan Khan to suggest there was conspiracy between him, Arbaaz Merchant and MunmunDhamecha. Merely because Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha were travelling in the same cruise, that by itself cannot be a foundation for the charge of conspiracy against them.”

Bombay High Court On Aryan Khan Case

A few days back, a source close to the Khan family had revealed to Bollywood Life that Shah Rukh Khan had intensified the search for a bodyguard for his son, Aryan Khan. Shah Rukh had decided that instead of looking for a new person for Aryan, he will let his bodyguard, Ravi Singh, stay in the city and ensure his son's safety. The source had stated:

“Aryan is not someone to get very comfortable in a new person’s company but he has known Ravi Singh for years now and shares a good rapport with him. He is supposed to visit the NCB office every Friday and with the new team investigating the case, there may be frequent summons and in such a case, Shah Rukh feels it is best to have someone known and trusted along with Aryan. So that he can be at peace when he is away from home for shoots.”
