The Narcotics Control Bureau on Wednesday arrested actor Ajaz Khan in connection with a drug consumption case, ANI reported.
The investigators took him for a medical check-up after which he will be produced before a local court in Mumbai for remand.
The central agency had detained Khan on Tuesday after conducting raids at two locations in Mumbai. He was taken into custody from the city airport upon his arrival from Rajasthan, according to NDTV. The NCB said it had found alprazolam tablets from his residence during searches in the city’s Andheri locality.
The NCB said that Khan was part of a drug syndicate ran by peddler Shadab Farooque Shaikh alias Shadab Batata, according to NDTV. Shaikh was arrested last week after over 2 kg of the banned mephedrone drug were recovered from him.
The actor has denied the allegations levelled against him, claiming that the investigators had only found four sleeping pills in his house. “My wife has suffered a miscarriage and is using these pills as antidepressants,” he said.
