Bhubaneswar: After the Bollywood fraternity, Congress leader Shashi Tharoor has come out in support of Shah Rukh Khan after the arrest of his son Aryan in the drug-on-cruise case.
“I am no fan of recreational drugs & haven’t ever tried any, but I am repelled by the ghoulish epicaricacy displayed by those now witch-hunting @iamsrk on his son’s arrest. Have some empathy, folks. The public glare is bad enough; no need to gleefully rub a 23yr old’s face in it,” he tweeted.
Aryan is among the 11 so far arrested in connection with the alleged drugs party onboard a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast. He along with seven others have been remanded to NCB custody till October 4.
