The Delhi High Court granted anticipatory bail to an accused in a case registered under the Narcotics Drugs Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act observing that there is prima facie no reason to believe that accused was part of a larger conspiracy.
A special court here on Monday said it cannot pass a blanket order barring courts from taking cognizance of an affidavit of an independent witness in the drugs-on-cruise episode, in which he has levelled allegations of extortion attempt by NCB zonal director Sameer Wankhede and others on actor Shah Rukh Khan, whose son Aryan is an accused in the case.
It added that the matter was sub-judice before the Bombay high court which is scheduled to hear the bail pleas filed by Aryan Khan and his co-accused Munmun Dhamecha on Tuesday.
A special court refused to pass a blanket order over NCB and Sameer Wankhede's plea seeking a blanket order barring courts from taking cognizance of an affidavit of independent witness Prabhakar Sail in the Mumbai cruise ship drugs case.
