The intelligence agency Narcotics Control Bureau has a bigger role in dealing with the drug abuse menace. After the sudden death of Talented Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, the NCB had started to dig deeper into the drug abuse in the film industry across the languages.
A few arrests were made in various film industries and this probe had brought a good name and the agency had come into the good books of the common people. Sadly, all the good work went in vain due to a sensational case and many fingers were pointed at the agency for reportedly targeting the innocent.
The Narcotics Control Bureau had earned a lot of criticism and a bad image in the much-talked-about Mumbai Cruise Ship case. As Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan was arrested in connection with the case, the issue had caught the nation's attention.
Now the case took a sensational turn as two officers from the agency were reportedly suspended. One of them is said to be an SP range officer. Though there is no official word on the reason behind the suspension, a few reports say that they were suspended on the grounds of the alleged negligence in rendering their duties.
After Aryan Khan was arrested, one of the key witnesses had alleged that there was a big conspiracy behind the case and the agency tried to extort as much as Rs 25 crore from Shah Rukh Khan to let his son go from the case.
Adding fuel to this, Prabhakar Sail, one of the key witnesses in the case had died in a suspicious turn of events. He reportedly developed a heart attack suddenly and breathed his last.
The drugs case involving Aryan Khan and a few others goes back to 2021. After receiving information on the alleged drug abuse, the NCB had placed a few people under arrest. They were sent to jail and after spending close to one month the accused were granted bail.
Later, the Bombay High Court had granted conditional bail to the accused that they should not make any statements on the case and they should not meet the other accused until the issue gets sorted.
