Summary:

Mumbai, Oct 26 (PTI) The Bombay High Court would on Wednesday continue hearing on bail applications of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan"s son Aryan Khan and two other persons arrested by the NCB following alleged drug seizure from a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast earlier this month.

Aryan (23), meanwhile, distanced himself from an allegation of extortion attempt against the NCB"s zonal director Sameer Wankhede who had supervised the raid on the ship on October 2.

Aryan"s lawyers Mukul Rohatgi and Satish Maneshinde argued before Justice N W Sambre that the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had no evidence against him.

Aryan is not concerned with these unsavoury controversies.

He completely denies any relation to this," senior counsel Rohatgi also told the court.
