Kiran Gosavi, the highly controversial 'independent witness' of the Narcotics Control Bureau that detained Aryan Khan in the cruise ship drug scandal, was finally detained in Pune by the police.

Gosavi was the person who was seen in the selfie with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan just after the star kid was detained by the NCB from the Goa-bound cruise ship.

However, soon after the image went viral on the internet, Gosavi was nowhere to be found, with people speculating who exactly he was and why he was clicking a selfie with Shah Rukh's eldest son. Well now, weeks after absconding, Gosavi was finally arrested by the Pune police after a lookout notice had been stamped over his head for being involved in a 2018 cheating case.

The arrest comes three days after Gosavi claimed that he had offered to surrender himself to the Uttar Pradesh police in Lucknow, with the police refusing to accept his surrender. A private investigator by profession, Gosavi had stated that he felt "threatened" in Maharashtra and wanted to surrender, however, his claims were refuted by the Lucknow police.

So far, we don't know the truth behind his statement, but soon after his arrest, social media users made some very, very interesting and hilarious observations about him. Take a look.

Did he used beauty plus app during his infamous selfie moment with aryan?

Wasn't he supposed to surrender in Lucknow?
Or did bjp realize it can't play from behind any more as Wankhede is being exposed too for fraud and extortion.#AryanKhan #NCB

Gosavi was present on the cruise ship during the NCB raid in which Aryan along with Arbaaz Merchant, Munmum Dhamecha, and others was detained by the police for possessing drugs. According to the videos and photos taken by Gosavi right after the arrest showed that he had unlimited access to Aryan.

Later, this clearly brought up questions about NCB's investigation by Maharashtra's ruling alliance with many leaders asking as to why an "independent witness" of the agency was present at the cruise ship raid, the office, and how he could take selfies with Aryan.

Gosavi's name is also a thing of particular interest as he is accused of extorting money from Shah Rukh for the release of his son Aryan.

Earlier, Prabhakar Sail, another witness in the cruise ship drugs case, had said he had proof of the payoff allegations made against Gosavi. Sail, who claimed to be Gosavi's personal bodyguard said that he had overheard Gosavi and one Sam D'Souza talking about a Rs 25 crore payoff to let off Aryan Khan in the case.

"They were discussing that Rs 8 crore would go to NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede," Sail claimed at a press conference earlier. However, Gosavi on Monday released a video statement to rubbish Sail's account. 

He said, "Sail is lying. I just want to request that his CDR (call details record) should be released. My CDR report or chat should be issued, along with the CDR report of Sail and his brother, then everything will be clear. At least one minister or any leader of the opposition from Maharashtra should stand with me. At least they should request the Mumbai Police to do what I am asking (to release CDR and chat of Sail."

Seems like the Aryan Khan drug case took yet another interesting turn.
