timesofindia.indiatimes.com

Sana Raees Khan is a well-known criminal lawyer from Mumbai. She gained attention for her work in the 2021 drugs-on-cruise case, where she successfully secured bail for Avin Sahu, a co-accused. Sahu was one of the first people to be granted bail in this high-profile case. In a recent interview, Sana shared her experience of getting bail for Sahu. She explained that she faced many challenges in court. "I argued for the whole day, literally for four hours," she said. Her main point was that neither Sahu nor Aryan Khan, the son of Bollywood actors Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, had drugs when they were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau. Sana also pointed out a major flaw in the investigation. She noted that despite claims of drug use, the authorities did not even take a blood sample to confirm these allegations. She expressed worry over young people being jailed with serious criminals, saying they are not gangsters or have violent records but are still held in dangerous environments. Her work not only helped Sahu but also affected Aryan Khan's bail hearing later. Others in the legal field started seeking her advice, showing the impact of her successful defense. "Now I know I'm getting calls. Please give us your order," she mentioned, highlighting the shift in how she was viewed after her success.
