Judge D W Deshpande grilled Khan for three hours, during which the actor answered 419 questions. After the questioning concluded, the judge asked him if he had anything to say, to which his lawyer, Shrikant Shivade, submitted a written statement.


In it, Khan said that on September 27, he was first at Rain Bar in Bandra and then went to Enigma at J W Marriott. Khan also testified that he was not drunk on that day and that at both the places, he only had water.
While leaving Enigma, Khan said he sat in the driver’s seat while waiting for his driver.

Thereafter, Khan, Ravindra Patil, his police bodyguard, Ashok Singh, his driver, and singer Kamaal Khan left for home. The actor deposed that Singh was at the wheel, he at the seat next to Singh, Kamaal on the rear left seat and Patil behind the driver.
