On Wednesday, a Congress party leader alleged that two private people including a BJP Vice President were also involved in the NCB raid that took place on October 2.
National spokesperson of the NCP along with Maharashtra Minorities Affairs Minister Nawab Malik, together slammed the “fraud” NCB operations, in which BJP leader Manish Bhanushali and “private detective” Kiran P. Gosavi were seen to be dragging out the accused, which included Aryan Khan as well as Arbaz Merchant.
On Wednesday, NCP Mumbai president and a Maharashtra cabinet minister, Nawab Malik told the reporters that, “After actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death last year, firstly a suicide was being alleged to be a murder. Then there was news that he was perhaps killed because of drugs. That’s when the NCB’s zonal office in Mumbai came into the limelight. Stories were planted. There was an attempt to defame the film industry and one by one various personalities would be summoned.”
“A perception was created that the entire Bollywood has become a nexus for a drug racket. In the same way, on 3 October evening, we started seeing news about an NCB raid on a cruise liner mid waters… Since the last one year, the BJP has been defaming Maharashtra, Maharashtra government, Mumbai’s film industry and Bollywood, and the drama on 3 October is completely farzi (fake),” Malik added.
