A private investigator and controversial witness in the Aryan Khan drug case, Kiran Gosavi, has been arrested by Pune Police.
Gosavi, who was seen in a viral selfie with Aryan Khan after his arrest in the drugs-on-cruise case, was absconding for many days.
NCB had listed Gosavi as an independent witness in the cruise raid. He was seen escorting Aryan Khan after the raid.

Gosavi's bodyguard Prabhakar Sail had alleged that he had struck a deal for Rs 18 crore to release Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan after the raid, adding that Rs 8 crores from the bribe money were to go to NCB officer Sameer Wankhede. Both Gosavi and Wankhede have denied the allegation.
Gosavi has demanded that Sail's call records should be investigated to find the truth about the bribe allegation.
Kiran Gosavi has been on the run since questions were raised on his presence at the NCB office after Aryan Khan's arrest. He earlier tried to surrender at a Lucknow police station citing threat to his life in Maharashtra, but was not allowed to.
Gosavi has also been accused of duping a Pune man on the pretext of getting him a job in Malaysia. A look out notice was issued against him to stop him from leaving the country.
