MUMBAI: NCB officer Sameer Wankhede is currently making headlines as he is investigating Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan’s drug case. 

Amid the drug case, he is being accused of extortion and other allegations by the Maharashtra minister and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Nawab Malik.

Even the witness Prabhakar Sail in Aryan’s case has leveled corruption allegations against Sameer. But did you know that SRK and other Bollywood celebs have had an encounter with Sameer Wankhede in the past too? Take a look:

Back in 2011, Shah Rukh was detained at the Mumbai airport while he was returning from Holland and London by Sameer Wankhede. The superstar was returning to the 'bay with his family. Reportedly, SRK was carrying 20 bags and his luggage was thoroughly checked at the airport and he was questioned for hours. Sameer, now an NCB officer, was Assistant Commissioner of Customs at that point in time. He questioned SRK and he later left the airport after paying Rs 1.5 lakh at the customs duty.
