An affidavit by Prabhakar Sail, bodyguard to drug case witness KP Gosavi, has brought about shocking developments in Aryan Khan related drugs case. He has leveled serious allegations of a payoff to the Narcotics Control Bureau and Sam D’Souza’s name has also cropped up. The affidavit by Prabhakar Sail cited a meeting between Shah Ruk Khan’s manager Poooja Dadlani, KP Gosavi and one Sam D’Souza in the wee hours of October 3 in Lower Parel. It also mentioned a payment of Rs 8 crore that had to be made to NCB’s Zonal director Sameer Wankhede.

Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut had also dragged Sam D’Souza in his statement while commenting on the drugs-on-cruise case. He had told ANI, “Sam D’Souza is the biggest money-laundering player of Mumbai & country. It’s a big game which has just started. Facts which came to light are shocking. Under Deshbhakti pretext, some people are extorting money, lodging fake cases.”

In the early hours of October 3, Sail claimed that while escorting Gosavi, he overheard him discussing a demand of Rs 25 crore and his willingness to “settle” at Rs 18 crore, of which Rs 8 crore was to be allegedly paid to Wankhede.

While KP Gosavi, who had gone into hiding since NCP minister Nawab Malik said he had criminal cases registered against him, surfaced on Monday and denied all allegations, including those of extortion. He also denied meeting Shah Rukh’s manager Pooja Dadlani—one of the claims made by Sail. Recalling the sequence of events of the NCB raid, he said that as he got information on the drugs, he passed it on to NCB officials, and when he went to the cruise, he first met NCB superintendent VV Singh and later met Wankhede. Until then he didn’t know about Wankhede, he said.
