Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan and five others were cleared in the Mumbai drugs-on-cruise case by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Friday.
Aryan and 19 others were arrested by the NCB’s Mumbai zonal unit in October last year on charges that they were all ‘intrinsically connected’ to a conspiracy involving drugs.
Aryan was granted bail on October 30 after he spent 26 days in custody.
On Friday, the anti-drugs agency filed a charge sheet against 14 persons before a Mumbai court and it did not include the star kid’s name due to lack of evidence.
Other than Aryan, Bhaskar Arora, Avin Shahu, Gopal ji Anand, Samir Saighan and Manav Singhal have also not been named in the charge sheet.
“Based on the investigation carried out by SIT, a complaint against 14 persons under various sections of the NDPS Act is being filed. Complaint against rest six persons is not being filed due to lack of sufficient evidence,” the NCB official told Indian media agencies.
