There are areas we need to investigate: Sameer Wankhede
Reports say that the central agency will request the court to extend Khan's custody till tomorrow as the investigation is still in a "nascent stage." While talking of the same, Sameer Wankhede, Zonal Director, NCB said, "NCB will seek further custody of Aryan Khan. I cannot reveal the links and the findings of last evening's interrogation, but there are areas we need to investigate."
On what basis will Khan's lawyer ask for his bail?
Meanwhile, Maneshinde, while harping for bail, would mention how the 23-year-old was held "on the basis of chat only." "Aryan had no ticket, no cabin or seat on board the cruise. He was there because he had been invited. He didn't even have a boarding pass. Nothing has been found on him," he maintained. Apart from Khan, the others arrested will also be produced.
