Former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) zonal director Sameer Wankhede has refuted claims that Aryan Khan was made a "bali ka bakra" (scapegoat) in the 2021 Cordelia cruise drugs case. In a recent interview, Wankhede defended the arrest, stating that possession of drugs isn't always necessary for an arrest under the law. He also addressed allegations of leaking his conversations with Shah Rukh Khan, asserting that such actions are not his habit and that he doesn't need to engage in such behavior. Wankhede emphasized that everything was done strictly by the book during the investigation.
