Amidst Jawan Release, Sameer Wankhede Wins Rs 25 Crores Bribery Case Involving Shah Rukh Khan’s Son Aryan Khan
Just after Jawan stormed the box office with big numbers, Sameer Wankhede also won a Rs. 25 crore bribery case that involved Shah Rukh Khan's son, Aryan Khan
Following the release of Shah Rukh Khan's film Jawan, Sameer Wankhede once again grabbed the spotlight by securing victory in a high-profile bribery case valued at 25 crore rupees, which implicated the superstar's son, Aryan Khan. To provide context, in 2021, Aryan Khan found himself entangled in a major legal issue during the Cordelia drug bust case. Subsequently, he was exonerated by the NCB's special investigation team. Nevertheless, Sameer Wankhede faced charges related to criminal conspiracy and extortion threats in connection to the same case.

Furthermore, the Central Administrative Tribunal, in its ruling, has pointed out that NCB Deputy Director Gyaneshwar Singh should not have been included in the special inquiry team tasked with investigating alleged procedural irregularities by the former NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede. This decision was based on the fact that Gyaneshwar Singh had previously issued instructions to Wankhede during the Cordelia drug bust case investigation. ALSO READ | DID YOU KNOW?
