New Delhi: In a huge relief for actress Ragini Dwivedi, the Supreme Court on Thursday granted her bail in connection to alleged involvement in a Sandalwood drugs case.

A Bench headed by Justice Rohinton F Nariman heard the arguments put forth by Senior Advocate Sidharth Luthra, appearing on behalf of Dwivedi, and Solicitor-General Tushar Mehta, and proceeded to note that Section 37 of the NDPS Act had been wrongly invoked by the Sessions Court and the High Court.

"The maximum that could be said was petitioner consumed drugs at the party," the Court observed as quoted by Bar and Bench.
