On Saturday night, the Narcotics Control Bureau raided a party on a cruise ship off the coast of Mumbai. Among those being questioned by the NCB is Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan. Reacting to Aryan being detained, actor Suniel Shetty has asked the fans and media to 'let the child breathe'.
ANI quoted Suniel as saying at an event, "The fact is, whenever there’s a raid, many people are taken. We assume that this child has consumed something, or this child has done that. The investigation is underway. Let’s give that child a breather. Whenever something like this from our industry happens, the media cracks down on it and numerous assumptions are made. Give the child an opportunity, let the real reports come out, till then, he’s a child, taking care of him is our responsibility.”
Earlier, NCB chief SN Pradhan told ANI, "It’s a result of a painstaking investigation that went on for two weeks. We acted on specific intelligence inputs and involvement of some Bollywood links has come to light".
