A team of Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Thursday arrived at Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s residence, hours after he visited the Mumbai’s Arthur Road Jail to meet his son Aryan. The actor’s son has been behind bars since October 3 in connection with the cruise drugs case. According to reports, a team of NCB is also present at actor Ananya Pandey’s residence.

Earlier, actor Shah Rukh Khan visited the Arthur Road Jail to meet his son Aryan for a brief period, following which he was seen leaving. Hours later, the NCB team was reported to have arrived at Khan’s own residence, Mannat, for the search operation.

Aryan Khan was arrested on October 3 in connection with a drug seizure on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast.

While a large section of the glamour world has strongly expressed their support towards the Bollywood star’s family and has questioned the arrest and consequent legalities, Khan had so far remained mostly absent from the lens.

His wife Gauri had once waited outside the court when Aryan’s hearing was underway but was seen teary eyed when the court had sent her son back to the jail.

In Aryan Khan’s WhatsApp chats, there is a reference to “bulk quantity” and “hard drugs” and “there is prima facie material showing that accused No 1 was in contact with persons dealing in prohibited narcotic substances”, the order added.

Notably, the NCB team had at mid-sea busted the alleged drugs party on October 2 aboard a Cordelia Cruise ship that was on its way to Goa.

The Bombay high court will be hearing Aryan’s bail application on October 26.
