Did Aqueel spill Harindra’s name?

Two days after DJ Aqueel was detained at Dubai airport for allegedly possesing the drug ‘Ecstasy’, Harindra Singh, the vice-chairman and managing director of media and communications agency Percept Holdings was arrested from Hotel Le Meridien with two of his associates on similar charges on Wednesday.
Singh, along with company spokesperson Ajay Upadhyaya and another friend, were reportedly picked up from his room when the Dubai police raided it on a tip-off.
Singh was in Dubai for Aqueel’s performance at Trilogy discotheque and the launch of his remix album.
A source said that at the time of his detention Aqueel was to board a flight back to India, while Singh had stayed back. The same source said that during sustained questioning by police, Aqueel may have named Singh.
Singh's friends in the city, however, are shocked at the news. “I have never seen Harindra doing drugs. In fact, he's a health freak. I can't believe he would be caught on drug charges,” says director Madhur Bhandarkar who had joined hands with Percept to produce Corporate and Traffic Signal.
