Sameer Wankhede’s name has been doing the rounds in reports over the past few days, especially since the arrest of Aryan Khan in the drug cruise ship raid. He’s been targeted by many, with the most prominent figure being Nawab Malik, Cabinet Minister Maharashtra.
Malik has constantly taken to social media to malinger the name of the officer, for he believes that Wankhede is a “fraud”. The sequence of the events unfolded like this:

The NCB, however, has hit back at Malik.
I belong to multi religious and secular family. My father is a Hindu and my mother was a Muslim. Publishing of my personal documents on Twitter is defamatory and invasion of my family privacy.
