Mumbai Police Summon Influencer Orry in ₹252-Crore Mephedrone Probe

Police frame the questioning as routine verification of an extradited suspect’s unverified party claims.

Overview

  • Orhan “Orry” Awatramani has been directed to appear before the Anti-Narcotics Cell’s Ghatkopar unit at 10 am on Thursday.
  • The probe traces back to a March 2024 seizure of 126.14 kg of mephedrone from a Sangli farm unit valued at about ₹252 crore.
  • Dubai-linked accused Mohammad Salim Suhail Shaikh was arrested after deportation on November 5 and is being interrogated in the case.
  • Shaikh alleged he organised drug-laced parties in Mumbai, Goa and Dubai attended by public figures, though investigators say these claims are unverified.
  • Remand filings referenced names including Abbas-Mustan, rapper Loka, Zeeshan Siddique and Orry, with police cross-checking digital and financial records and stating no one has been named as an accused in this context so far.
