I’m being stalked on visits to kabristan: NCB officer

MUMBAI: Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) zonal director, Indian Revenue Service officer Sameer Wankhede, probing the narcotics seizure on a cruise liner leading to the arrest of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan, on Monday filed a complaint with state police and Union government, alleging that someone was stalking him.

Sources said Wankhede complained that he has learnt through sources that someone had been regularly following him even to a kabristan in western suburbs, which he visits to pray at his mother’s grave. Wankhede’s mother passed away in 2015, and since then he has been visiting the kabristan regularly.

He said two persons, accompanied by two officers of Oshiwara police, even took away CCTV footage of his visit to the graveyard. He submitted evidence to substantiate his claim, sources said. Wankhede sought police protection for himself and his family too.

Wankhede refused to comment. NCP spokesperson and minister for skill development Nawab Malik had questioned the contraband seizure from the cruise liner, saying it was a fake operation.

He was in the news for the arrest of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan following seizure of drugs from a cruise liner. This is the second extension granted to Wankhede.
