The special NDPS court on Wednesday had rejected the bail applications of Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant and model Munmun Dhamecha. The special court, in its order, had said that prima facie there is material that the accused are part of a larger network and Aryan deals with illicit drug activities on a regular basis.

The lawyers of Aryan and Dhamecha have now moved the High Court seeking bail. The court said, "WhatsApp chats brought before the court show that Aryan has been dealing with illicit drug activities of narcotics substances on a regular basis. Therefore it can't be said that Aryan is not likely to commit a similar offence while on bail."
