The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) Court who has arrested Aryan Khan, Arbaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha informed the city Court that “shocking and incriminating” material has been found in the WhatsApp chats of these three.
The Court also claimed that the chats show that the three are linked to international Drug Trafficking.
It also claimed that while discussing the mode of payments for the drugs, several code names were used.
Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, who was appearing for NCB stated, “Raids are going on now. Shocking and incriminating material recovered in WhatsApp chats of the accused shows international drug trafficking.”
Adding to it, he stated, “All the accused persons have to be confronted with each other. The international transactions need to be investigated.”
The case is all about the arrest of Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha in their connection with the cruise rave party from where Drugs were seized.
All three were arrested on Sunday and were produced on Sunday and produced before a special holiday Court on the same day and that Court allowed the custody to NCB till Monday.
While the NCB on Monday looked for the custody of Aryan Khan, Merchant, and Dhamecha till October 11, saying it needed to uncover the nexus between drug shoppers and providers and defy all the captured denounced with one another and secure different providers of narcotics substances, the Court only increased the custody till October 7.
Additional chief metropolitan magistrate RM Nerlikar who granted the extension of the custody observed that an intermediate quantity of drugs was seized from one of them, and Aryan Khan was present there with them.
It should be noted here that all three of them are booked under sections 8(c), 20, 27, and 35 of the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.
