Lawyer Satish Maneshinde and his team were a part of Aryan Khan's legal defence working for over three weeks to secure a bail for him in the drugs-on-cruise case.

In a statement, Maneshinde and his legal team said, "Right from the day he (Aryan Khan) was arrested there was no evidence, no possession, no consumption, nor is there anything of that sort now. We are grateful to Almighty that our prayers were accepted by Justice Nitin Sambre and bail was granted to Aryan. Satya Meva Jayate."

Several members from the Bollywood fraternity including Sonam Kapoor, Sonu Sood, Mika Singh and Malaika Arora among others expressed joy on social media after the Bombay High Court granted bail to Aryan in the Mumbai cruise drugs seizure case. The Bombay High Court also granted bail to Arbaaz Merchant and Munmum Dhamecha in the case.

At present, Aryan is lodged at the Arthur Road Jail along with another accused Arbaaz Merchant whereas, Munmun Dhamecha is at Byculla women prison.

The three accused, who were granted bail in the Mumbai cruise drugs seizure case, would be released from jail after the Bombay High Court issues detailed order in the matter on Friday, said former Attorney General of India Mukul Rohatgi.

Rohatgi, who represented Aryan Khan, told media, "Bombay HC has granted bail to Aryan Khan, Arbaz Merchant, Munmun Dhamecha after hearing the arguments for three days. The detailed order will be given tomorrow. Hopefully, all they will come out of the jail by tomorrow or Saturday."
