The Indian actress who was detained at Sharjah Airport in an alleged drug possession case has been cleared by the court, according to her lawyer, Mohammed Al Redha, Lawyer and Legal Consultant at Al Redha and Company. Speaking to Khaleej Times, Redha said, "She was cleared of all charges on June 12," reaffirming her innocence which they had maintained from the beginning.
According to her lawyer, the 27-year-old was framed by two men who 'deceived' her with false promises of an audition and a role in a Hollywood web series. It was reported that she travelled to the UAE under the impression of bagging an acting gig.
The two men tricked the actress into carrying a trophy with her to Sharjah, which had drugs concealed inside the metal piece. On April 1, when the woman landed at Sharjah Airport from Mumbai, she was apprehended by the authorities for possession of drug.
The public prosecutor detained the actress for over 20 days, and her passport was confiscated. She was later released on conditional bail and lived with her uncle here in the Emirates.
