October 28, 2021 16:30

Former Attorney-General for India Mukul Rohtagi, representing Aryan Khan, starts final submissions before the Bombay High Court after the submission of ASG Anil Singh, who is representing NCB in the matter.

"There was no conspiracy because there was no meeting of minds. There was no discussion that they met and decided that they will get the substance and smoke -- that is conspiracy.

"If there are people in a hotel in different rooms and they smoke, are all people in the hotel in conspiracy? There is no material for calling it a conspiracy in this case.

"I knew only Arbaaz, I did not know anyone else. It is true it is difficult to prove that there is common meeting of mind. but facts cannot be ignored. There has to be meeting of minds. how can there be conscious possession for 6 gms?
