Cruise ship drug seizure: NDPS court grants bail to two accused

MUMBAI: A special NDPS Act

court

here on Tuesday granted

bail

to two persons arrested in a drug seizure case in which Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan is one of the accused.

Manish Rajgaria

and Avin Sahu became the first accused in this high-profile case to get bail.

The

Narcotics Control Bureau

(NCB) had claimed that the two were among the "guests" on the cruise ship where narcotic drugs were recovered off the Mumbai coast on October 2.

The NCB has arrested as many as 20 people in the case including Aryan Khan.

The special court for

Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act

cases had earlier rejected the bail applications of Aryan and two others in the case. The Bombay High Court is now hearing their bail pleas.
