Shrawan Nadar was arrested by Matunga police in a theft case
When the accused staying in the same barracks where Aryan Khan was lodged in Arthur Road Jail came out on bail, he gave interviews to many news channels, talking about the star kid's daily activities. Little did he know that his television appearance would put him back in prison.
The accused is identified as Shrawan Nadar, 44, who was arrested by Matunga police in a theft case. After his police custody ended, Nadar was sent to the Arthur Road Jail to serve judicial custody. Nadar recently got out on bail.
Interestingly, when Aryan was granted bail in the Cordelia cruise drugs case, mediapersons thronged the prison expecting his immediate release. Expecting to enjoy some glamour and attention, Nadar rushed to the jail and shared anecdotes about Aryan on multiple news channels. Nadar claimed in one such interview that when he got bail 10 days ago, Aryan had sent a message via him, requesting Shah Rukh Khan to send money to the jail. Nadar had claimed that he had gone to Mannat, where the actor lives, to deliver Aryan's message, but the security did not allow him in.
This interview was being watched by the Juhu police officers, who were looking for Nadar since February in a house break-in case in which valuables of R8 lakh were stolen. With the help of local crime branch sleuths, the accused was soon arrested. A total of 13 cases are registered against Nadar in different police stations of Mumbai.

A police officer told mid-day, "It is true that Shrawan Nadar was lodged in barrack number 1 of Arthur Road Jail, in which Aryan Khan was kept as well. But the information about him being given the responsibility to deliver Aryan's message to Mannat is not verified."
Shashikant Mane, senior inspector of Juhu Police Station told mid-day, "There are 13 cases registered against Nadar, out of which three are registered in Juhu alone. After arresting him [Nadar], we produced him in the court where he was sent to police custody till November 1."
