Aryan Khan (C), son of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, is escorted to court by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officials for a bail plea hearing in Mumbai on October 7, 2021, after his arrest in connection with a drug case. (Photo by Sujit JAISWAL / AFP) — Maneshinde’s first act of defence was offense: he said that Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan had been to a party where drugs had been found, but he had none on him. Whether the argument holds any water will be made clear today as Aryan, who has been in the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) custody since October 2, seeks bail. On October 7, Aryan was in court for his bail hearing, however the NCB wants custody of him for longer — until October 11. The star kid has reportedly been cooperating with the NCB and has given a four-page statement in the case that started on a cruise liner. Image Credit: AFP
