Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan was recently given a clean chit by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in the Cordelia cruise drugs case and the anti-drugs agency had not named him in its charge sheet. In a statement, the NCB had said that the agency could not find sufficient evidence against Aryan Khan and the five others. A 6,000-page charge sheet has been filed in the case, naming 14 accused.
Now as per a report in India Today, the charge sheet mentions that Ananya Panday had told Narcotic Control Bureau (NCB) that Aryan Khan lied about her giving him weed.
In his statement, Aryan Khan had reportedly mentioned that Ananya Panday had given her weed after taking it from her younger sister. Ananya, in her detailed reply to NCB, denied this and said that she is not aware of why Aryan Khan lied about the same.
"Ananya has a younger sister who was caught by Ananya with weed. She was about 15-16 years old at the time. She was not a regular smoker and was misled. When Ananya found out, she did not want their parents to know, so she gave me the weed to dispose of, and I did," India Today quoted Aryan Khan’s statement to NCB.
On the other hand, Ananya denied this all together and was quoted as saying, “I want to state that I have never given any drug/contraband to anyone. I have never offered to give drugs/contraband to anyone. I have never even offered to pay anyone for drugs or contraband. I am not in the business of drug delivery or peddling. I do not know any drug dealer.”
Aryan Khan was arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in October 2021 and was in judicial custody for 26 days. He was given a clean chit on May 27, 2022.
