Actor Shah Rukh Khan’s manager Pooja Dadlani has now been summoned by the Narcotics Control Bureau in connection to the Aryan Khan drug case. Yesterday, during his bail hearing, NCB alleged that Khan’s manager Pooja Dadlani has influenced a panch witness. In NCB’s affidavit, they claimed interference by his manager in the probe due to which it is said that the bail application of Aryan Khan was liable to be rejected on that ground alone. Well, now the latest development in the drug-on-cruise ship case suggests that NCB has now summoned Pooja for interrogation, as reported by Zee News.
This came right after Prabhakar Sail, the bodyguard of KP Gosavi, claimed that he spoke to Dadlani about the extortion on money that was allegedly demanded by the NCB officials. “Importantly, such alleged affidavit clearly mentions the name of the manager of Pooja Dadlani attached to this applicant. It appears that the said woman has influenced five such witnesses during the course of the investigation. Such interference at the investigation stage is a malicious attempt to ensure that it obstructs and obstructs the pursuit of truth”, the NCB told the High Court.
Now, speaking about the same, Sail’s lawyer Tushar Khandare told ETimes, “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.” Speaking about the transactions, Khandare added, “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.”
