The NCB director's wife's response came after Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik, on Monday, claimed that Sameer Wankhede is Muslim and his father’s name is ‘Dawood’.
The NCP leader had earlier released a photo of Wankhede from his first wedding to Dr Shabana Qureshi, hinting that Sameer Wankhede claimed to be Hindu and forged his caste certificate in order to be selected in the civil services.
On this allegations, Wankhede issued a statement saying that publishing of his personal documents on Twitter is intended to malign him, his family, his father and his late mother.
“The series of acts of Honourable Minister over the past few days have put me and my family under tremendous mental and emotional pressure. I am pained by the nature of personal, defamatory and slanderous attacks by Honourable Minister without any justification,” Wankhede said.
This is one of the latest exchanges in the controversial drug case involving Aryan Khan, who is currently under arrest.
