Drug case; WhatsApp chats not proof enough to show accused supplied drugs to Aryan Khan

Mumbai: A special court observed that only WhatsApp chats won’t be enough proof to prove that Aachit Kumar had supplied drugs to co-accused Aryan Khan, the son of film actor Shah Rukh Khan, and Arbaaz Merchant in the drugs-on-cruise case.

In the detailed order, the court also raised objection on the veracity of the Narcotics Control Bureau’s (NCB) panchnama records and said they were fabricated and seemed suspicious.

Expect for the whatapp chats with Aryan, there is no concrete evidence to reveal that Kumar was involved in drug smuggling, court observed.

Aryan and Merchant, who were arrested in the cruise drugs case on October 3, were granted bail by the Bombay High Court last Thursday.
