    A Mumbai Court will consider the bail applications filed by Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant, Munmun Dhamecha and others in the Cruise Ship Drug case.

    The court on Thursday rejected further NCB Custody of Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan, actor Arbaaz Merchant and model Munmun Dhamecha and other accused in the case.

    Aryan Khan and 7 other accused have been remanded to judicial custody instead.

    "No custodial interrogation is required as sufficient time was granted to the investigating officer for investigation," Additional Metropolitan Magistrate RM Nirlekar said.
