Forced To Falsely Implicate Arjun Rampal, Ranbir Kapoor, Dino Morea By NCB: Ex-Dharma Executive


via https://youtu.be/b-74Txz-Has A former executive of Dharmatic Entertainment, an offshoot of Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, told a court that Narcotics Control Bureau officers made him falsely implicate actors Ranbir Kapoor, Arjun Rampal and Dino Morea during questioning. "I have been repeatedly harassed and coerced into falsely implicating Dino Morea, Arjun Rampal and Ranbir Kapoor in the present proceedings despite me repeatedly stating that I do not know the said persons and have no knowledge of such allegations," Prasad said in an application, published by the Indian Express. Kshitij, in a plea submitted through his lawyer Satish Maneshinde said, “I say that I am being mentally, emotionally and psychologically harassed and abused by the complainant (NCB) into making false statements.” The NCB described him as ‘totally non-cooperative, adamant and arrogant’. Kshitij had previously alleged that the NCB forced him to implicate Karan Johar. The NCB officers apart from Sameer Wankhede were courteous to Kshitij and provided him with a comfortable sleeping arrangement. — Maneshinde The next morning when his statement recording resumed, Kshitij was categorically informed by Sameer Wankhede in the presence of several other officers, that since he was associated with Dharma Productions, they would let him off if he implicated Karan Johar and some others, falsely alleging that they consumed drugs. Kshitij refused to comply with this despite the pressure being mounted on him as he did not know any of these people personally and did not wish to falsely implicate anyone. Johar, in a social media statement, distanced himself from Kshitij, and said that he doesn’t do drugs. I would like to further state that several media/news channels have been airing news reports that Kshitij Prasad and Anubhav Chopra are my ‘aides’/’close aides’. I would like to place on record that I don’t know these individuals personally and neither of these two individuals are ‘aides’ or ‘close aides’. I wish to further state that Mr Anubhav Chopra is not an employee at Dharma Productions.
