Mumbai: Narcotic Control Bureau’s Mumbai Zone head Sameer Wankhede will report to the Director General of Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) in Delhi as his tenure at NCB came to an end on Monday.
IRS officer Sameer Wankhede, who faced a lot of flak after arresting Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan in connection with the cruise ship drug bust case, was given four months extension which ended on December 31.
