NCB's Sameer Wankhede Meets Maharashtra DGP

 Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) zonal director, Sameer Wankhede who is probing the narcotics seizure on a cruise liner leading to the arrest of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan has filed a complaint with state police and Union government, alleging that someone was stalking him. 

Wankhede met the Maharashtra DGP, alleging that some persons in plain clothes had been following him for the past few days.

A report in indianexpress.come stated that Sameer Wankhede also submitted the CCTV footage of him being spied upon as a piece of evidence.

An NCB source said that there were instances where Wankhede was followed by a few persons and his movements were being tracked.

Another report mentioned that Wankhede complained that he has learnt through sources that someone had been regularly following him even to a kabristan in western suburbs, which he visits to pray at his mother’s grave. Wankhede’s mother passed away in 2015, and since then he has been visiting the kabristan regularly.

Wankhede sought police protection for himself and his family too.

Meanwhile, a Mumbai Special NDPS Court on Monday deferred the bail application hearing of Aryan Khan to October 13 after the Narcotics Control Bureau sought time to file its reply in the matter.

Accordingly, Khan and others will continue to spend the next two days at the Arthur Road Central Jail and the Byculla Women's Jail till they are enlarged on bail.

All the 8 detained initially on October 2 after the NCB raided the rave party aboard a luxury ship, Cordelia Cruise and arrested the following day (October 3), have been in NCB's custody and then in judicial custody for the past nine days.

They were declined bail by Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate R.M. Nerlikar last Friday on grounds of maintainability and shunted to the jails.

After these arrests, the NCB has swooped in different parts of Mumbai and nabbed another dozen accused -- taking the total to 20 so far.
