Mumbai A Mumbai court on Friday rejected the bail application of Aryan Khan, the son of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, and two others in connection with the alleged seizure of banned drugs from a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast.
Aryan Khan, Munmun Dhamecha and Arbaaz Merchant were arrested by the NCB on October 3 following a raid on a Goa-bound ship, while the other five were arrested the following day.
While rejecting the bail plea Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate R M Nerlikar in his order agreed with the submission made by the prosecution that the present court has no juridaction to pass order on the plea as it is not maintainable before this court and session court is the competent court for the same.
Aryan and other were on Thursday remanded by the court into judicial custody for 14 days.
Following the court order they are now languishing in Arthur road jail in central Mumbai.
