The CBI also alleged that Wankhede, two former NCB officials, and some private workers had already collected Rs 25 lakh of the demanded 25 crore bribe.
Wankhede earlier served as the Narcotics Control Bureau's ( NCB) Mumbai Zone Chief and was in controversy over the arrest of Aryan Khan in the cruise ship drugs case.
Wankhede faced several allegations during his tenure at NCB, following which he was transferred and an internal inquiry was ordered for a few of his controversial cases.
A few months back, the NCB’s SIT (Special Investigation Team) that had re-examined the Aryan Khan drug case, submitted a chargesheet, giving a clean chit to 6 out of the 14 accused, including Aryan. The NCB cleared the star son's name due to "lack of sufficient evidence."
Aryan, his friend Arbaaz Merchant and cruise guest Munmun Dhamecha were among the first to be arrested on October 3, 2021. They were granted bail by the Bombay High Court at the end of the month. No drugs however, were found on the superstar's son.
Aryan was booked for attempting consumption of drugs under Section 27, attempting an offence under Section 8 (c) (possession), Section 28 (abetment) and Section 29 (conspiracy).
While granting bail, the High Court said that WhatsApp chats extracted from Aryan's mobile disclosed “nothing objectionable”, nor was there any evidence to show that Merchant, Dhamecha or others had hatched any conspiracy to commit drug offences.
