A METROPOLITAN magistrate in Mumbai denied bail to Aryan Khan, the son of Indian actor Shah Rukh Khan, and two others on Friday (8) in a case related to the alleged seizure of banned drugs from a cruise ship off the coast of the maximum city.

Additional chief metropolitan magistrate R M Nerlikar rejected the bail pleas of Aryan, 23, and two others.

The court on Thursday (7) sent Aryan and seven others arrested in the case to 14-day judicial custody after their Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) custody came to an end. Additional solicitor general Anil Singh, who appeared for the NCB, opposed the bail applications of the three accused.

The magistrate denied the bail to Aryan, Munmun Dhamecha and Arbaaz Merchant after hearing the arguments and said their applications were not maintainable.

The NCB arrested Aryan and others on October 3 after raiding a Goa-bound cruise ship. The central agency had claimed to have recovered drugs from the luxury ship.
As a result of the rejection of bail, Aryan would have to remain in jail over the weekend in the Mumbai drug bust case.
