Mumbai: In a breaking development in the Mumbai cruise ship drug bust case which has seen the arrest of Aryan Khan, his father and Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan’s driver has been summoned and is currently at the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) office. Alongside Shah Rukh Khan’s driver, in another fresh summons by the NCB, producer Imtiaz Khatri is also being questioned by the NCB at its office, after the agency raided Khatri’s office and residence earlier in the day.

While Shah Rukh Khan’s driver’s interrogation is underway, the latest development in the Aryan Khan case is that the court’s panchnama cites the NCB stating that Aryan Khan admitted that he consumes Charas and had brought it along with his friend and co-accused Arbaaz Merchant to consume aboard the Cordelia Cruise ship from where he was arrested.

The panchnama states that Charas was hidden in Arbaaz Merchant’s shoes and was extricated by the NCB after he told the sleuths where it was. The NCB Panchnama claims, “Ashish Ranjan Prasad asked them that whether they accepted, and then Arbaaz Merchant said that he is having Charas hidden inside his shoes. Arbaaz Merchant admits that he consumes Charas with Aryan Khan and they are going inside Cordelia’s cruise. On asking, Aryan Khan admits he also consumes Charas and the Charas was meant for a smoke during the cruise journey.”
