No matter What kind of problem you are dealing with.
Aryan Khan is currently lodged judicial custody after he and other accused were booked for offences under Sections 8(c), 20(b), 27, 28, 29 and 35 of the NDPS Act. They were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on October 3 and have been denied bail multiple times since then.

While Aryan Khan’s lawyers have been arguing that no contraband was found from him, the NCB has been opposing his bail on the ground of alleged WhatsApp chats that indicate an international drugs racket. They have also stated that Aryan Khan's background allows him means to tamper with evidence, if left out on bail.
