SPP Chimalker (for NCB): We will require time to file replies. I appear with ASG Anil Singh. Investigation is being agthered. It is ongoing. I will pray for one week.
Maneshinde (for Aryan Khan): All our applications are identical almost except for the roles. If there is a development, then they won't require so much time.
Sr Adv Amit Desai (for Aryan Khan): So far as our applicant is concerned, person connected in the case are not allowed ... Today is the time of health. I don't know how many persons unconnected are not allowed in court.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Of course NCB is doing its duty. From what I have seen from the record for my person, from last Sunday till this Friday, he was in custody. Only a statement was recorded on Sunday.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Bail does not stop investigation. But the man has been in for a week. After looking at case diary and other persons, it was concluded that PC (police custody) is not required.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Two facts that are important for date: 1) This person admittedly is not found in possession of him 2) Necessity of time... they did argue bail application on Friday. It was heard and rejected and hence we are here.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Considering the peculiar facts of this case, probably, in the first group, he is the only person without any recovery and no material.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Magistrate applies his mind on the bail application and he only rejects it on maintainability. We are not disputing the jurisdictional aspect. The papers are forwarded to the Sessions Court
Desai (for Aryan Khan): We are in the hands of the Court when justice needs to be done. The accused has been charged with an offence with punishment only for a year.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): Today afternoon (for hearing the case) is what I am praying for, or worst case, tomorrow. They are ready, this matter was argued. ASG was there and Maneshinde was there.
SPP Chimelkar (for NCB): Normally, NCB takes a week to file reply. The facts that they have been saying are not correct facts. The picture is not as rosy as it seems.
Desai (for Aryan Khan): They want 2 days ... they had 2 days since Friday because the application was served. The NCB was working and making arrests as can be seen from the press reports.
SPP Sethna (for NCB): With utmost respect to all lawyers and seniors, there is no urgency in this matter. We were only served with the (bail) application yesterday ...
SPP Sethna (for NCB): As per Desai's submissions, his matter deserves priority. The other matters, their quantities are different. It will not be humanely possible for us to file replies to all applications. Let the matters start from the first produced
Desai (for Aryan Khan): As an officer of the Court, the Chief Principal Judge's direction, everyone is here at risk. If your honour does not allow that, whoever is not necessary will not be allowed in court.
