MUMBAI: Actor Armaan Kohli's bail plea was rejected last week by the NDPS (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances) Court in the drug trafficking case. According to an NCB (Narcotics Control Bureau) source, “One of the main reasons why Armaan has not been granted bail is that there is strong evidence of financing and trafficking of drugs. The officials have also found a foreign connection in drug supply with respect to his case.”
It may be recalled here that Armaan was picked by the NCB in August last year and has been languishing in Arthur Road jail since then. Allegedly, NCB officials had recovered 1.2 grams of cocaine from his house.
Armaan Kohli is known for his work in films like Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, Virodhi, Jaani Dushman, Veer, Juaari, Qahar, and many other movies. And for his stint in the Bigg Boss house in the 7th Season, where he was also engulfed in controversies for being too aggressive and was accused by fellow Contestant Sofia Hayat of assault.
Armaan is the son of veteran filmmaker Rajkumar Kohli who is 91 years old. Armaan’s mother is also ailing and she’s also suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. Last year, the actor had filed an application for bail citing reasons that his parents are aged and there is no one to take care of him. He hasn’t been able to procure a bail yet.
