I am a father who is unable to even embrace his son who needs a tight reassuring hug".
Arbaaz's father also visited the NCB office on Monday evening to collect some documents and now wants to get his son out of jail as soon as possible. Aslam said that his son was concerned about his friends who are in the same jail. "Innocent kids should not be punished even before trial. As I was leaving, Arbaaz told me, 'Dad, I will not leave Aryan alone in jail and no harm should be caused to Aryan. We all have come in together here and will leave together from here'. I was so touched by those words; for him friendship is supreme".
