Ananya Panday's chats reveal she agreed to arrange ganja for Aryan Khan, but there is no evidence: NCB sources

MUMBAI
Ananya Panday was summoned by the Narcotics Control Bureau for questioning on October 21. She was called for interrogation after her name cropped up in WhatsApp chats recovered from Aryan Khan’s mobile. And according to the latest update, Ananya’s name has been tied to a drugs chat.

According to India Today, the NCB showed Ananya her chats with Aryan Khan where Aryan had asked her if arrangements for drugs could be made. To this, Ananya had replied: "I will raise" the matter. However, the report stated that there is no evidence of Ananya arranging the banned substance for Aryan Khan. When confronted, Ananya said she was just joking with Aryan Khan. The NCB also claimed that Ananya and Aryan regularly talked about drugs on chats. Also, sources have revealed Ananya has denied all allegations around using and procuring contraband substances.
Ananya Panday was questioned for around four hours on Thursday.

The NCB had also seized her laptop and cell phone, but refused to confirm details about the seizure. Ananya was accompanied by her father Chunky Pandey, when she visited the NCB’s Ballard Pier office at around 4 pm. She is expected to appear before the investigating again today for a second round of interrogation. While speaking to the media about the ongoing probe, an NCB officer clarified, "The investigation is going on. When NCB officials visit a person or location for questioning that does not mean the person is a culprit or being investigated. There are several procedures being followed."

Meanwhile Aryan Khan continues to be in judicial custody. After his bail was rejected by the sessions court, Aryan’s appeal against the order will be heard by the Bombay High Court on October 26. The star son’s judicial custody has been extended till October 30. He is currently lodged at the Arthur Road jail.

On Thursday, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) visited Chunky Panday’s house. Three NCB officials, including a female officer, served a summons to Ananya Panday. The actress was asked to appear before the NCB at their office on the same day at 2 pm for further questioning. Meanwhile, another NCB team visited Shah Rukh Khan’s Mumbai residence, Mannat. The search operation followed right after the central agency submitted chat messages of Aryan Khan with an "upcoming Bollywood actress" to a Mumbai court, and claimed that both were discussing drugs. Ananya shares a close bond with Aryan and Suhana and the trio often hangs out together at parties and events.
