CBI has registered case of corruption, criminal conspiracy against former NCB Mumbai zonal director Sameer Wankhede, who is said to have 'demanded bribe to settle probe against Aryan Khan'.
Central agency claims Wankhede demanded a bribe to 'settle the case', and a report has been submitted to central govt for further action, it is learnt.
NCB officer Gyaneshwar Singh had headed a probe that found irregularities in Wankhede's work on Aryan Khan case. Scheduled caste panel has sought report from MHA, amongst others.
Wankhede is former lead investigator in an alleged NCB drug bust over which Aryan Khan was arrested last year. His latest tweet comes two days after Khan was given clean chit in the case.
According to excise department’s complaint, Wankhede, who had shot to fame during the Aryan Khan case, posed as an adult to obtain the license even though he was 17 at the time.
Official sources said Wankhede presented his version and official documents related to the raid, which took place in October last year at the international cruise terminal in Mumbai.
Wankhede, whose tenure with Mumbai NCB ended on 31 December, was in news during his stint with the NCB due to action against Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan in an alleged drug case.
Wankhede, Mumbai Zonal Director of NCB, was in spotlight for Bollywood-linked cases like arrests of Rhea Chakraborty and Aryan Khan. His tenure at NCB ended on 31 December.
