'Sameer Dawood Wankhede's private army': Nawab Malik reacts to BJP's 'twist' given to Aryan Khan case
The viral photo of Kiran Gosavi and Aryan Khan was first sent to Sunil Patil. From there, it got leaked, the BJP leader said claiming that Gosavi, Sam, Prabhakar Sail, Manish Bhanushali are all Sunil Patil's strongmen.
The drugs-on-cruise case involving Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan took a new turn on Saturday as BJP leader Mohit Bharatiya addressed a press conference and linked Maharashtra former home minister Anil Deshmukh with the case. Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik said he will reply to these allegations what the BJP leader claimed as ‘revelations’ in his press meet scheduled on Sunday when Malik is supposed to expose some secrets hidden in the hotel 'The Lalit'.
Sameer Wankhede not completely out of picture, will assist in Aryan Khan case
Here's what the BJP claimed
> Sunil Patil, one of the founding members of the Nationalist Congress Party and a friend of Anil Deshmukh's son, played a key role in the Aryan Khan case. Patil used to influence the transfer of the officers under the home ministry, the BJP leader claimed during his press conference on Saturday.
> The story, as narrated by Mohit Bharatiya, starts on October 1. Sunil Patil contacted Sam D'souza, the BJP leader said revealing the WhatsApp chats and call. Sunil informed Sam that he had names of 27 people who would be going to attend the cruise party. Patil asked D'Souza to get connected with an NCB official, which D'Souza did, the BJP leader claimed.
> On October 2, Sunil Patil introduced KP Gosavi to Sam D'Souza, sent Gosavi's number to Sam so that Sam connects Gosavi with an NCB official.
> Going forward, Kiran Gosavi and Sam D'Souza spoke in which Gosavi apparently threatened Gosavi. The BJP leader claimed Sam D'Souza and Sunil Patil had a conversation in August, long before the cruise case, in which Patil claimed to have a great connection inside the power corridors of Maharashtra.
> Kiran Gosavi is Sunil Patil's strong man and his work is to get clicked with powerful people, despite political allegiance, the BJP leader said, showing their photo with a Gujarat minister.
> Gosavi, Manish Bhanushali, Prabhakar Sail, Sam D'Souza all belong to the same team of Sunil Patil.
> The BJP leader claimed that for the past year, Sunil Patil had a suite in The Lalit hotel where there used to be parties of 'sharab, shabab and kebab' in the attendance of many Maharashtra ministers. Anil Deshnukh's son was a regular visitor there, the BJP leader claimed.
