NCB has summoned Shah Rukh Khan’s manager Pooja Dadlani in the Aryan Khan case. The news was confirmed by Zee News reporter. As per reports Pooja will be called in for investigation. The NCB has alleged in a statement to Bombay High Court that SRK’s manager Dadlani “appears to have influenced” a witness.
The allegation comes after witness Prabhakar Sail claimed to interact with Pooja Dadlani over the extortion money allegedly demanded by NCB officials.
Prabhakar Sail’s lawyer Tushar Khandare said, “If Pooja Dadlani is in the wrong, she’ll be prosecuted as well. Whatever was mentioned in Prabhakar’s statement will be investigated by the police and they will take appropriate action. The investigation is on, so we can’t reveal if the money came directly from her or from someone else. But I can assure you, the money was received for sure. Prabhakar had received a token amount for the full sum of money.”
In a major development, two accused persons in the Aryan Khan drug case have secured bail. Manish Rajgarhiya, Avin Sahu was granted bail subject to furnishing bail bonds to the tune of Rs 50,000. The bail order was given by Special Judge VV Patil. He had earlier rejected the bail plea of Aryan Khan and certain other co-accused.
Aryan Khan was arrested on October 3 after an NCB team busted an alleged drugs party on October 2. At present, Aryan is lodged at the Arthur Road Jail along with another accused Arbaaz Merchant. Whereas, Munmun Dhamecha is at Byculla women prison.
