Court - Oh then you will have to think of your mother also! (laughs)
Sethna - This is the thread.
Adv Gorakh - I have not got a copy of the panchnama.
Officer -You just signed the vakalatnama!
Adv Gorakh - They have nothing to charge me under 27A of NDPS Act.
Court -... Now you are telling me this. So is the investigation going to be restricted to the Cruise or go beyond? Because you've added the charge of conspiracy.
SPP - We are restricting ourselves to the information gathered here.
Court - What is his connection with the present crime?
SPP - From the statement of Mohak Jaswal (guest), Abdul Kadir Sheikh was arrested and from Sheikh's statement, Igwe's statement is revealed.
Court - How can a future conspiracy be an offence?
SPP Sethna - There is an element on conspiracy, therefore he is charged under... 22C, 27A (Punishment for financing illicit traffic and harbouring offenders) under NDPS Act.
Prays for 3 days custody.
