As the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has remained unresponsive in the case of Bandra-based DJ Clayton Rodrigues, who was allegedly framed in a fake drug case and arrested in Sharjah in February last year, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi has stepped in to support him, writing to both Foreign Minister Jaishankar’s office and the Chief Foreign Secretary to highlight the issue. Despite the family’s persistent efforts to seek assistance, there has been no response from Jaishankar's office.

In a letter to the Foreign Ministry, Chaturvedi wrote, "This is to bring to your notice the case of a Mumbai-based disc jockey who has been framed for carrying a small quantity of drugs and has been in jail in Sharjah, UAE, for more than 1.5 years. Clayton Rodrigues, the DJ, was framed by a Mumbai-based baker, Anthony Paul, who tricked four others through the same scheme and now roams free."
