Mumbai police to probe if cruise raid was fake: Dilip Walse-Patil

Mumbai, 23/11:In a major development, Maharashtra Home Minister Dilip Walse-Patil on Monday indicated that in the wake of the recent Bombay High Court observations in the Aryan Khan bail matter, the Mumbai Police would probe if the Narcotics Control Bureau raid on a cruise ship was “fake” or not.

 

In the detailed order on the bail pleas of Khan, Munmun Dhameha and Arbaaz Merchant, Justice Nitin Sambre had said that there was “prima facie no positive evidence” against them on the NCB’s charges pertaining to “conspiracy and common intent” in the case.

 

When questioned, Walse-Patil said that against this backdrop, the city police will investigate if the raid on the Cordelia Cruise ship, led by NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede was ‘fake’ or otherwise.
