‘I’m relieved & so is Shah Rukh Khan, future is bright,’ says Aryan Khan’s lawyer Mukul Rohatgi

The Narcotics Control Bureau has handed Aryan Khan a clean chit in the cruise narcotics case, some eight months after he was originally detained. The NCB did not find any evidence against Aryan Khan and he has thus been cleared  Mukul Rohatgi, the lawyer for Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan’s sons, told NDTV that he is happy that NCB has accepted their mistake.

Rohatgi said, “I’m relieved, and so must my clients be, including Shah Rukh Khan. The truth has prevailed. Ultimately, there was no material to charge this young man (Aryan Khan) or arrest him. He was not found with any drugs and I had clearly indicated to the court that the arrest was completely meaningless.”

“I’m happy that the NCB has acted professionally. At least at the time of filing the charge sheet, admitting and realizing that there was no reason to proceed against this young man. They have admitted their mistake.”

He said, “All is well that ends well. Once you forget the dark chapter of 26 days and the anxiety which it caused to the accused and to his parents and well-wishers, I think we should look at the future. Now, the future is bright and the chapter should be closed.”

Rohatgi said, “It was a harrowing experience for him and the family. I’m happy that all this is done.”
