For the second consecutive day, the two disc jockeys, Romeo and Deepesh Sharma of Designer Hippies, who played music at the party, were called to the police station today and their statements recorded, a police officer at Juhu police station told PTI.

As of now, statements of five persons were recorded, the officer said, but refused to divulge their names and other details.

Police are verifying the antecedents of all the 91 guests at the party as they suspect that one of them could have been the drug supplier and might have thrown away the drugs in the hotel on seeing the police which swooped on the hotel in a surprise raid.

110 grams of cocaine and 64 grams of charas had been recovered from the premises during the raid. The drugs were found on the sofas and the floor but were not recovered from any person.

The investigators are also trying to decode the language used in the invitation. Police are taking help of various party organisers to decode the language used in the invitation. (More)
