In a relief to Sameer Wankhede,  the Bombay High Court on Friday extended the relief by Delhi High Court till Monday. Wankhede has protection from arrest till May 22. The Delhi High Court had allowed Wankhede to seek further relief from the Bombay High Court on May 17

Wankhede, the former NCB Mumbai zonal chief and others were booked by the CBI for alleged criminal conspiracy and threat of extortion, besides under provisions pertaining to bribery under the Prevention of Corruption Act on a complaint by the NCB in connection with the drugs-on-cruise case involving Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan

Aryan Khan was arrested by the NCB on October 3, 2021 after a raid on the Cordelia cruise ship. The raid was conducted during the tenure of Sameer Wankhede at the Mumbai NCB

Aryan Khan was later granted bail by the Bombay High Court after three weeks of his arrest as the anti-drug agency reportedly failed to substantiate its charges against him

The probe agency has alleged that the NCB, Mumbai Zone, had received information in October 2021 related to the consumption and possession of narcotics substances by various individuals on the private cruise ship and that some of its officers conspired and obtained undue advantage in the form of bribes from the alleged accused
