Meet NCB's Sameer Wankhede, probing drug cases with alleged Bollywood links

NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede is back in news after a weekend raid on Mumbai cruise 'rave party'. Wankhede shot to prominence in 2020 after NCB's probe into alleged Bollywood-drug nexus following SSR death. He had probed Rhea Chakraborty in a drug case that was registered after Sushant Singh Rajput's death. Reports say after SSR death, Bollywood-drug 'nexus' has been on the radar of NCB since last one year. And now the man behind this pursuit of busting drug nexus in Mumbai is its officer Sameer Wankhede. Wankhede is also behind the arrest of Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan along with others from Mumbai cruise. While Wankhede is after Bollywood-drug 'nexus', he is himself a big fan of B-wood. Wankhede is married to popular Marathi actress Kranti Redkar who has appeared with Ajay Devgn in his film gangajal.
