Mumbai Drugs Bust Case: Will Aryan Khan Walk Out Of Jail Today?

Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan had to spend the Thursday night in Arthur Road Prison despite being granted bail in the drugs-on-cruise case as the Bombay High Court was yet to give its detailed order.

With the order likely to be released on Friday, Aryan will be able to walk out of the jail either the same day or Saturday.

Former Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi, who represented Aryan, told the media that his release will depend on how quickly they follow the process after the court gives the detailed order.

His lawyers attempted to hurry up the bail process by seeking permission from the single-judge bench of Justice NW Sambre to submit cash bail. However, the court refused and said surety is to be given, the India Today reported.
