According to NCB Mumbai Director Sameer Wankhede, eight persons, namely, Aryan Khan, Arbaaz Merchant, Munmun Dhamecha, Nupur Sarika, Ismeet Singh, Mohak Jaswal, Vikrant Chhoker, Gomit Chopra, are currently being questioned in connection with the raid. Last week, Agisilaos Demetriades, brother of Gabriella Demetriades, Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal’s partner, was also arrested after drugs were recovered from him. His name is also being talked about in connection with the current drug raid.

As per reports, late last night the NCB detained at least ten people in a raid conducted on a cruise ship sailing from Goa to Mumbai. The high-profile party was organised onboard the Cordelia Cruises’ Empress ship. Based on a tip-off, the NCB officials had boarded the cruise ship after disguising themselves as passengers. Once the ship sailed off the coast of Mumbai, the rave party began and several passengers began consuming illicit drugs. The NCB officials swung into action and detained 7-8 individuals, who were allegedly seen taking drugs.
