Court sends Aryan Khan, 7 others to NCB custody till October 7

Aryan Khan, Arbaz Seth Merchant, and Munmun Dhamecha, who were arrested in connection with the Mumbai cruise party raid, have been remanded to NCB custody till October.

The NCB had earlier today informed that eight persons have been detained in the matter. Here, three have been arrested while the other five will be produced before the court soon.

Satish Maneshinde, the lawyer arguing in defence of Aryan Khan said in the Court, "Accused number 1, Aryan Khan was invited for the cruise party. However, he did not have a boarding pass. He didn't have any seat or cabin there. Secondly, according to the seizure, nothing has been found in his possession. He is arrested only based on chats."

On a late Saturday evening, an NCB team busted an alleged drugs party on the Cordelia Cruise ship which was on its way to Goa at mid-sea. Eight persons were detained for questioning by the NCB allegedly in connection with the drug seizure on the cruise ship, according to NCB zonal director Sameer Wankhede.
