Aryan Khan was Denied Bail By Mumbai Court today

Aryan Khan Bail Hearing LIVE Updates: Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was denied bail on Wednesday by a special court in Mumbai that ruled that WhatsApp chats showed his involvement in illegal drug activities and his “nexus with suppliers and peddlers”.

Aryan Khan has been in Mumbai’s Arthur Road jail since October 8 and was briefly in the custody of the NCB before that. His lawyers have approached the Bombay High Court for bail.

Aryan Khan, his friend Arbaaz Merchant and model Munmun Dhamecha, and five others were arrested after disguised officers of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) raided a rave party on a cruise ship off Mumbai on October 2. Since then, the number of arrests has gone up to 20.

Aryan Khan’s WhatsApp chats appeared to reveal that he regularly indulged in “illicit drug activities”, a special court in Mumbai said on Wednesday, as it turned down the bail application filed by the son of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the drugs-on-cruise case.

“WhatsApp chats prima facie reveals accused Aryan Khan is dealing in illicit drug activities for narcotic substances on regular basis. Therefore, it cannot be said that Khan is not likely to commit similar offence while on bail,” Judge VV Patil said in his order.

“As argued by the learned ASG (Additional Solicitor General), though no criminal antecedent are there, from WhatsApp chats of Applicant No. 1 (Aryan Khan) it is reflected that he was indulging in illicit drug activities,” it said.

The court also said that the material placed on record points to a “nexus” between Aryan Khan, 23, and suppliers and peddlers.

The court said that though nothing has been found from Aryan Khan, six grams of charas was found hidden in his friend Arbaaz Merchant’s shoe, and it seemed Aryan Khan knew about it.
