On Tuesday, the High Court of Bombay adjourned till Wednesday the ongoing hearing in the bail plea of superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan, who has been arrested in the cruise party case by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB).
It has been reported that the case will be continued in court at 2:30 pm on Wednesday, Oct 27. The decision was taken after Arbaaz Merchant's counsel & Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh said that they will need 45 minutes each for their arguments.
Making a forceful plea for bail to Aryan Khan, his lawyer & Ex-Attorney General of India Mukul Rohatgi told the Court that Aryan Khanwas a special invitee to the ship through event manager Prateek Gaba.
Both Aryan & Arbaaz Merchant were caught before they boarded the ship on Oct 2, nothing was recovered from Aryan & the Narcotics Control Bureau has nothing to show he consumed anything (drugs), he said.
"He was arrested on October 3 & his statement recorded. There was no occasion to arrest my client (Aryan), short & simple," Mukul Rohatgi said before a bench of Justice N.W. Sambre.
He pointed out that even though the NCB officers are not police officers, they exercise police powers, & citing a precedent, said that confessions given to them are inadmissible as evidence.
