As per reports, Aryan Khan’s family will apply for bail today after Court remanded him to NCB custody.
Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, appeared before the court for the NCB, and sought the trio’s custody for nine days. He said, “NCB seized Aryan Khan’s phone and there are several suspected chats which shows the connection with the dealers. It is, therefore, necessary to confront all accused in the custodial remand.”
He also argued that WhatsApp chats show the discussions about cash transactions and that there are mention of international transactions also. He even claimed code names were used by the accused in the chats to communicate with peddlers.
Aryan Khan’s lawyer Satish Maneshinde opposed the extended custody plea by the NCB.
