Aryan's submission said, he has nothing to do with allegations and counter allegations that are currently on social media as between NCB Mumbai zonal Director and certain political personalities.
Aryan further added, that he does not have any connection with said Prabhakar Sail, or with his purported employer Kiran P Gosavi.
The NCB referred to an affidavit by witness Prabhakar Sail and said, that its investigation was being interfered with, and attempts are being made to tamper with ongoing probe, with a malafide attempt to derail the same.
Senior Advocate and former Attorney General for India, Mukul Rohatgi is representing Aryan Khan, before Bombay High Court.
