Aryan Khan was in NCB’s custody after he was arrested in the drug bust case that took place at Cordelia cruise which was sailing from Mumbai to Goa. The raid reportedly produced a haul of 13 grams of cocaine, 21 grams of charas, 22 pills of MDMA and 5 grams of MD, the anti-drugs bureau revealed.
The court ordered, “No further development was made. Remanding the accused to police custody is a serious concern and IO is required to give reasons. Therefore, the accused cannot be made hostage, till the main culprit is found, they have prayed for judicial custody … The same has been reiterated by other accused,” as reported by NDTV.
