The minister has, throughout this episode, levelled a series of allegations against the officer, including that he forged his birth certificate to secure job under the Scheduled Caste category, framed people in 26 fake cases etc.On Sunday, Malik also claimed that the purported cruise ship "rave" party was a plot to "kidnap" Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan to ask for a ransom. He claimed that Wankhede was part of this conspiracy that was plotted well in advance.
