Was Aryan At Wrong Place, At Wrong Time? SRK Asks Friends Not To Visit Mannat

Mumbai: Support kept pouring in for Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan after the arrest of his son Aryan in the drugs-on-cruise case.

In the comment section of a journalist’s Instagram post, Sussanne Khan, who is believed to be close to Gauri Khan, wrote, “I think this is not about Aryan Khan, as he was unfortunately at the wrong place at the wrong time.”

“This situation is being made an example to drive home the excitement that some people get as they have a witch hunt on people from Bollywood,” she added.

According to TOI, NCB has found links in the form of pictures, chats on Aryan‘s mobile phone pointing to an international drug trafficking chain. Media reports further said that he has been cooperating with the investigating agency and has given a ‘4-page written statement’ to the cops.
