According to a journalist, Faye D’souza, the reason for the delay in Aryan Khan’s bail is because of his WhatsApp chats. The journalist had quoted her source as “Khan was not found with any drugs in his possession but the NCB argued that they have access to WhatsApp chats that suggest he was regular user, overseas. Including a chat that said “Let’s have a blast” which the NCB interprets as an intention to consume drugs.”
