According to a news report in Hindustan Times, while pleading for Aryan's bail, his lawyer Satish Maneshinde had said that his client is from a respectable family, has roots in the society and won't run away. The report had quoted Maneshinde to state at the court, "Just because a person belongs to an affluent family, you can't say he is likely to tamper evidence. There are people roaming streets with much more serious offences. I have never used my influence."
The lawyer had also claimed that no drug was recovered from Aryan Khan and that he was arrested just on the basis of WhatsApp chats. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had earlier opposed Aryan's bail and had claimed that he could tamper with the evidence and influence the witnesses. The star kid and the other five accused have been taken to the Arthur Road jail after the court sent them to judicial custody for 14 days on Thursday (October 7). On the other hand, the two female accused were sent to Byculla women's jail.
