An Indian court granted police three more days to interrogate Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s 23-year-old son Aryan Khan on Monday after his arrest during a cruise ship drug bust.
The country’s Federal Narcotics Control Bureau arrested Mr Khan and seven others on Sunday after banned substances were recovered in an undercover raid on the Cordelia cruise ship on Saturday as it sailed towards Goa.
The Mumbai court extended his remand until October 7, a day after a court had granted an initial remand of one day to the bureau.
The prosecution argued that Mr Khan’s further interrogation was necessary to establish his links with what they called an international “nexus” of peddlers and suppliers.
Mr Khan has denied the charges and claimed that he did not possess or consume the drugs and that he had been invited on the cruise ship by one of the accused.
“I am of the view that the investigation is of prime importance. Considering this aspect, the presence of the accused with NCB is necessary. Remanded till October 7,” the judge said at the end of the hearing.
The Bureau said it had recovered 13 grams of cocaine, 5 grams of MD (mephedrone), 21 grams of Charas and 22 pills of MDMA (ecstasy) during the raid.
Mr Khan’s lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, told the court that no banned substances were recovered from his client and the seizures of drugs from others could not be “foisted” on him.
But the prosecution contended that WhatsApp conversations found in Mr Khan’s mobile phone when he was aboard link him to an international drug ring, and it had asked for him to be held in custody until October 11.
“Aryan Khan is discussing modes of payment to be used for procurement,” Prosecutor Anil Singh told the court.
“WhatsApp chat clearly shows the nexus after which NCB conducted searches. Aryan Khan’s phone was seized. There are several suspected chats that show the connection with the dealers,” Mr Singh argued.
Mr Maneshinde said the alleged WhatsApp conversations do not “indicate any drug trafficking” and cannot be used against his client under several Supreme Court judgements.
“The drugs that have been seized as mentioned in the remand have not been seized from any one of us … I cannot be roped in with seizure … What was on others cannot be foisted on me,” Mr Maneshinde told the court. Indian lawyers commonly use the first person when referring to their clients.
“The entire period of my stay abroad, I have not been involved in any trafficking, supply or distribution … my chats, downloads, pictures, nothing indicates any involvement,” he said.
Tareq Sayed, representing Mr Khan’s friend and another accused, Arbaaz Seth Merchant, told the court there were some 1,300 people on the ship during the raid, but NCB only arrested the two youngsters because they were “high-profile persons.”
Mr Khan’s father Shah Rukh, 55, is one of the biggest film stars in India and has largely remained a uncontroversial figure in his three decades of public life.
He has not made any public statement on his son’s arrest, and he didn't attend Monday’s court hearing.
Several Bollywood actors and directors expressed solidarity with the actor as India’s social media space was rife with slanderous claims about his family.
“It gets compounded when people begin to arrive at judgements before the law takes its course. It is disrespectful and unfair to the parent and to the parent-child relationship,” film director Hansal Mehta said on Twitter.
In recent years, Bollywood has been in the headlines over allegations of widespread drug abuse and several top stars have come under the Bureau's scrutiny.
The industry was rocked by the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput in 2020, who allegedly committed suicide following a history of drug abuse.
Police had arrested his girlfriend, actress Rhea Chakraborty, for drug possession.

Moscow claimed it hit the largest military fuel storage facility in Ukraine, triggering a huge fireball at the site.
A plume of black smoke rose from a fuel storage facility in the village of Kalynivka outside Kyiv on Friday after Russia said it had destroyed the military site with Kalibr cruise missiles.
"On the evening of March 24, Kalibr high-precision sea-based cruise missiles attacked a fuel base in the village of Kalynivka near Kyiv," the Russian defence ministry said in a statement.
Ukraine confirmed the strike, saying the village some 40 kilometres south-west of Kyiv was targeted.

Who has been sanctioned?
Daniella Weiss and Nachala
Described as 'the grandmother of the settler movement', she has encouraged the expansion of settlements for decades. The 79 year old leads radical settler movement Nachala, whose aim is for Israel to annex Gaza and the occupied West Bank, where it helps settlers built outposts.
Harel Libi & Libi Construction and Infrastructure
Libi has been involved in threatening and perpetuating acts of aggression and violence against Palestinians. His firm has provided logistical and financial support for the establishment of illegal outposts.
Zohar Sabah
Runs a settler outpost named Zohar’s Farm and has previously faced charges of violence against Palestinians. He was indicted by Israel’s State Attorney’s Office in September for allegedly participating in a violent attack against Palestinians and activists in the West Bank village of Muarrajat.
Coco’s Farm and Neria’s Farm
These are illegal outposts in the West Bank, which are at the vanguard of the settler movement. According to the UK, they are associated with people who have been involved in enabling, inciting, promoting or providing support for activities that amount to “serious abuse”.
