MUMBAI : The Bombay High Court granted bail to actor and former 'Bigg Boss' contestant Armaan Kohli on a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh in connection with possession of drugs. Reportedly, the actor was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau in a drugs case and had been lodged in jail for the last 1 year.
The 50-year-old was arrested by the NCB after a raid on his house had found 1.2 g of Cocaine. Earlier the actor had pleaded for a bail, which was rejected a few months back, after which his lawyer had decided to appeal to the High Court.
Reportedly, the actor had pleaded for bail on the grounds that only a small quantity of drugs was allegedly recovered from his possession, and as such he was entitled to bail.
Armaan, popularly known for his role in 'Jaani Dushman: Ek Anokhi Kahani', has been MIA from the acting scene. He was last seen on the big screen in 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' in the year 2015.
He also participated in the seventh season of Salman Khan's controversial reality show 'Bigg Boss'.
