Earlier, the Maharashtra minister shared a video, which showed that NCB freed three people after raids on a luxury cruise. “After the raid on the cruise, NCB's Sameer Wankhede had said that 8-10 people (including Aryan Khan) were detained. But the truth is that 11 people were detained. Later, three people - Rishabh Sachdeva, Prateek Gaba and Amir Furniturewala - were released,” he was quoted saying.
He further demanded an independent investigation in the case. He said, “Mumbai Police's Anti-Narcotics cell should conduct an independent investigation into this”.
