The Bombay HC had granted bail to Munmun and Arbaz along with co-accused Aryan Khan, the son of actor Shah Rukh Khan, and Arbaaz Merchant on Thursday.

Munmun Dhamecha and Arbaz Merchant, who were granted bail in Mumbai drug bust case, were released on Sunday. While Dhamecha walked out of Byculla women’s jail, Arbaz was released from Mumbai’s Arthur Road Jail.

The two were released from the jail, three days after they were granted bail in the cruise drugs case in which the two were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on October 3. The Bombay High Court had granted bail to them along with co-accused Aryan Khan, the son of actor Shah Rukh Khan, on Thursday. Dhamecha’s release order was put in the bail box outside Byculla jail late on Saturday evening after the bond process of her release was completed.

On Friday afternoon, the HC made available its operative order in which it imposed 14 bail conditions on Aryan Khan, Merchant and Dhamecha, stipulating their release on a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh each with one or two sureties of the same amount.

Dhamecha’s advocate Ali Kaashif Khan on Sunday said, “She has been released from the jail after completion of all the legal formalities. We are now going to file an application before the NCB seeking permission to allow her to go Madhya Pradesh, as she hails from there.” Her co-accused Arbaaz Merchant, who is lodged at the Arthur Road jail, is yet to be released. Aryan Khan, who was also lodged in the Arthur Road jail following arrest in the case, returned home on Saturday.

Khan said the procedure in court was completed only at 7.30 pm, two hours beyond the jail’s deadline. He further said that they managed to drop the release order in the box at 8.30 pm.

The HC had in its detailed order asked Aryan Khan, Merchant and Dhamecha to appear before the NCB’s Mumbai office every Friday between 11.00 am to 2.00 pm to mark their presence. On October 2, the NCB had raided the Goa-bound cruise ship off the Mumbai coast and claimed to have seized drugs onboard.
