Citing Aryan Khan’s clean chit, model Munmun Dhamecha, who was one of the accused in the 2021 drugs on cruise case, has approached a special court in Mumbai court seeking discharge from the case.

Her plea states, “Khan, who was arrested due to being in the company of co-accused Arbaaz Merchant, from whom a recovery of 0.6 grams of charas was made, was discharged by NCB (Narcotics Control Bureau) through their chargesheet.”

Dhamecha stated in her plea that when she boarded the cruise, nothing was found in her possession, but only from her cabin, and, therefore, she cannot be made responsible for it. Others present in the cabin during the alleged recovery were let off and she was the only one from her cabin who had been detained, the plea said.

Munmun was arrested along with Aryan and six others when a drug raid was carried out on a Mumbai-Goa cruise. “NCB Mumbai on October 2, 2021, intercepted Vikrant Chhokar, Ishmeet Singh Chadha, Arbaaz Merchant, Aryan and Gomit Chopra at the International Port Terminal, Mumbai Port Trust, and Nupur Satija, Mohak Jaiswal and Munmun Dhamecha at Cordelia Cruise. All the accused persons were found in possession of narcotics, except Aryan and Mohak,”

Sanjay Kumar Singh, Deputy Director General (Operations), NCB said in a statement while giving a clean chit to Aryan Khan.
