Pearl V Puri, who was arrested on June 4, 2021, by Waliv Police Station in Mumbai has now been granted bail by the Sessions Court. The Naagin actor was booked under the POCSO act after an FIR was filed against him for allegedly molesting a minor. Spotboye quoted his lawyer Jitesh Agarwal to confirm Pearl’s bail. “Yes, he has been granted bail by the Vasai Sessions Court,” he said. Pearl V Puri’s plea for bail was rejected by the Vasai Court earlier after which he was sent into judicial custody.
After two failed attempts for bail, the actor has now been released on bail after 10 days. Meanwhile, in an audio posted by RDR Bharat, the minor’s mother is apparently heard saying, “I was married for 12 years and he (minor’s father) was abusive. Mentally and physically also.” The mother is even heard saying that the allegations leveled on Pearl V Puri are baseless and false. “I don’t know Ekta. He (minor’s father) is putting these wrong allegations. I don’t know what’s wrong with him.” However, the victim’s father has rubbished all claims.

Divya Khosla Kumar, who worked with Pearl in a music video, shared a series of posts and made some shocking claims about the whole case. She mentioned that Pearl is being falsely accused and punished because of a marital conflict between the alleged victim’s estranged parents.
