    Bombay High Court will continue hearing bail applications of Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha today.

    When the court adjourned the hearing yesterday, the single-judge bench of Justice Nitin W Sambre had indicated that the matter will be taken up post 2.30 pm.

    Today the Court will hear NCB's arguments 

    Yesterday, Senior Advocate Amit Desai completed his arguments for Arbaaz Merchant. 

    Advocate Ali Kashif Khan will continue his arguments for Munmun Dhamecha today. The NCB is also expected to respond to the applicants' arguments during today's proceedings. Yesterday, ASG Anil Singh informed the court that he will try to finish his arguments within one hour.

    The trio, accused in the drugs-on-cruise case, was arrested by the NCB on October 3. They had moved the High Court following the rejection of bail by the Special NDPS Court on October 19.

      Rohatgi - If it is their argument that the admissibility of Section 67 statement cannot be seen at this stage, then that would be a violation of Article 21.

      Rohatgi- It is true that it is difficult to prove conspiracy but facts will always speak.

      Rohatgi - Apart from the people mentioned in the chart, there were two other people, one is Manav and the other is Gaba (who invited me). They were not arrested.

      Rohatgi says there is no material to allege conspiracy.

      Rohatgi - I can understand if even all ten were friends.

      Rohatgi- I never use a mike, even in the SC.

      "Their case is if it is not a coincidence, but a conspiracy. There has to be meeting of minds. Say a telephone call between all 8. So apart from Arbaaz, none of these chaps has anything to do with me".

      Court requests Rohatgi to switch off the mike.

      Rohatgi- Aachit was arrested with 2.4 gms. Dealers cannot have just 2.4 gms.

    • 28 Oct 2021 10:52 AM GMT

      Rohatgi- There were 1300 people on the ship. No material was produced by NCB to show that I knew anyone else apart from Arbaaz and Aachit.

    • 28 Oct 2021 10:51 AM GMT

      Rohatgi: So basically what five other people are carrying is put on me. But section 27A is not applied against me.
