Bribe case: Wankhede showing SRK chats as 'integrity certificate', says CBI; HC grants interim relief

The CBI recently filed an FIR against Wankhede for allegedly seeking a Rs 25 crore bribe for not framing the Bollywood star's son Aryan Khan in the drugs-on-cruise case.

MUMBAI: Former NCB zonal director and bribery accused Sameer Wankhede is trying to show the alleged messages exchanged with film superstar Shah Rukh Khan as a ‘certificate of integrity’, the CBI told the Bombay High Court on Monday.

The High Court is hearing a petition of Wankhede, who is accused of seeking Rs 25 crore as bribe from the actor for not implicating his son Aryan in the Cordelia cruise ‘drug bust’ case.

A vacation bench of Justices Abhay Ahuja and MM Sathaye on Monday extended till June 8 the interim protection granted to Wankhede in the case.

Last Friday, the court had directed the Central Bureau of Investigation not to take any coercive against him till May 22.

Citing the messages exchanged with Khan, Wankhede, in his petition, has claimed the film superstar had no grievance against him and had requested that he be kind to his son Aryan Khan.

Wankhede further claimed the actor had not only praised his integrity “but has also expressed his anguish over the political involvement in the matter”.

Referring to the chats, Wankhede, in his plea, claimed the tone of Khan’s messages would have been completely contrary had he (Wankhede) raised demands for money for releasing Aryan Khan.

During the hearing on Monday, the CBI, represented by advocate Kuldeep Patil, submitted that those requests (referring to the messages exchanged between Shah Rukh Khan and Wankhede) were made by a father (Khan) whose young son (Aryan) was in his (Wankhede) custody.

Wankhede is trying to show them (messages from Khan) as a “certificate of integrity”, CBI advocate Patil told the court.

Opposing the continuation of interim protection to Wankhede, advocate Patil said the order may come in the way of arrest or any action that the CBI may want to take, adding the order (interim protection) cannot be indefinite when the probe is underway.

Patil also sought time to file the CBI’s response to Wankhede’s plea.

Advocate Abad Ponda, appearing for Wankhede, argued the officer was investigating a “very serious case” and was trying to clean the system.

Ponda was referring to the Cordelia cruise ‘drug bust’ case of October 2021 in which Aryan Khan was arrested.

Ponda told the court then NCB Deputy Director Gyaneshwar Singh had been apprised of every step of the probe.

Ponda said the “backbone” of the CBI’s FIR against Wankhede “is flawed” as it didn’t follow the provisions mandated by law.

The case was “illegal and bad in law” and the idea was to ground an “honest officer who stood against the tall and mighty”, Ponda said.

The court, after hearing both sides, extended Wankhede’s interim protection subject to the condition that he shall not publish any material through WhatsApp or any other mode related to the case or investigation or give press statements or tamper with evidence.

The court asked Wankhede to give an undertaking to this effect.

Wankhede was also directed to appear at the investigation agency as and when he is called by the concerned officer.

The HC directed the CBI to file its response by June 3.

The matter will be next heard on June 8.

The CBI recently filed an FIR against Wankhede for allegedly seeking Rs 25 crore bribe for not framing the Bollywood star’s son Aryan Khan in the drugs-on-cruise case.

On a complaint by the NCB, the CBI booked Wankhede and four others for alleged criminal conspiracy and extortion threat as well as under the Prevention of Corruption Act for alleged bribery.

As per the CBI, the NCB’s Mumbai Zone received information in October 2021 related to the consumption and possession of narcotics substances by various individuals on the private cruise ship Cordelia, after which some of its (NCB) officers conspired and obtained undue advantage in the form of bribes from the alleged accused.

Aryan Khan was arrested by the NCB on October 3, 2021 after a raid on the cruise ship.

He was granted bail by the Bombay High Court after three weeks as the NCB failed to substantiate its charges against him.

Aryan Khan to remain in NCB’s custody on account of drug consumption

The current news coverage of the Cray’Ark cruise event held in Mumbai by the various media agencies is the perfect example of the media’s state of affairs today. This is not the first time that the media has blatantly reported and shared partial fake news which involves zero credibility when handling a celebrity-profile case in the case of SSR and the likes.

Such is the case with the present scenario that revolves around the NCB’s raid on a cruise party organised over the last weekend. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Saturday evening busted a cruise party in Mumbai called Cray’Ark which was organised by a Delhi-based event management company. Kashiff Khan, FashionTV MD who was merely the title sponsor of the event has been dragged maliciously by the media when in fact, he has no connection with the concerned issue.

The event was expected to be attended by prominent names from the media and entertainment industry. After the NCB conducted a six-hour-long raid on the cruise ship, eight people were detained and brought into the NCB office for questioning in the wee hours of Sunday morning.

One of the accused includes Bollywood actor, Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan who was detained and taken into custody after he was found accompanying his friend, Arbaaz Merchant who was caught in possession of several drugs like MDMA, cocaine, Mephedrone, charas, and estimated cash of around Rs. 1.33 lakhs.

NCB has summoned and questioned the Delhi-based event company officials and the concerned authorities from the Cordelia Cruise company. The event company was tasked with the overall planning and management of the event onboard Cordelia Cruises’ Empress Ship scheduled from October 2nd to October 4th, 2021.

In yet another classic case of tarnishing a high-profile person’s image, FashionTV MD Kashiff Khan was unnecessarily dragged into this matter when he was merely the title sponsor for the event organised onboard the Cordelia cruise. The ball remains in the public’s court now if they should blindly trust the media’s coverage on such scandalous issues.

Good Evening, Shoddy investigation is one thing ,but a malicious and motivated probe is quit another.The probably connected by former Narcotic Control Bureau (NCB) official Sameer Wankhede into a purported tip-off about consumption of drugs on board a cruise ship,I'm October 20th, seems to fall in the latter category. The raid on the vessel resulted in seizuer of narcotic substance and the arrest of several people ,including Aryan Khan ,son of Bollywood star Sharuk Khan .Even though nothing was seized from Mr.Khan ,the agency made sensational climes in court about his being part of an international drug trafficking network and ,quit strongly ,cited messages purportedly exchanged on WhatsApp as ' evidence '.By the time he obtained bail week later ,the case had all making of a with -hunt .A special investigation team from Delhi ,with took over the case after allegations of extortion surfaced aganist Mr .Wankhede, has now cited lapses in the initial investigation and the lack of prosecuted evidence, and absolved Mr.Khan and five others and excluded them from the charge sheet find recently. The lapses included failure to video - graph the search of the ship,not conducting a medical examination to prove consumption, and examine Mr.Khan's phone and reading messages on it without any legal basis. It is good that the agency made amends of the mischief done by the initial set of investigators by applying the standard of 'proof beyond reasonable doubt ' while presenting it's final report.At the same time ,the NCB has to re-examine it's priorities. It is an elite agency in the fight against international trafficking in narcotic and psychotropic substance. It is primary focus ought to be on trans-nationak smuggling networks ,while the job of pursuing drug peddlers and raiding rave partied must be left to the local police.while strict disciplinary action bis warranted if any officer is found involved in 'fixing 'someone, it is also time that the Government came out with a legal framework for compensating those jailed without proof...co (at Mumbai, Maharashtra) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeY3iwClS_b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
