Sameer Wankhede Faces New Bribery Case Over Aryan Khan Drugs Charges

Sameer Wankhede, a former anti-drugs officer, was booked last year on charges of seeking Rs 25-crore bribe for not framing SRK's son Aryan Khan in a drugs case.

The Enforcement Directorate has registered a money laundering case against former Mumbai NCB zonal director Sameer Wankhede taking cognisance of a CBI FIR in an alleged Rs 25-crore bribe demand from superstar Shah Rukh Khan's family to spare his son in a drugs case, official sources said Saturday.

The central agency has booked the case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), they said.

Some former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officials have also been summoned.
