South African cricket player Wayne Parnell who was a wanted accused in the Juhu 'rave party' case, today surrendered before a local court. Parnell was later granted bail for Rs 10,000. He had earlier been shown as a wanted accused in the charge sheet of the case.

Last month, the Special NDPS court had given a copy of the charge sheet filed in the case to the accused, including IPL cricketer Rahul Sharma and actor couple Apoorva Agnihotri and Shilpa Agnihotri.

The Mumbai Police had on March 6 filed the charge sheet in the case after which the court had summoned all the accused. Sharma and the actor couple, along with others, had been rounded up after a raid on a suburban hotel.

Police had conducted a raid in May last year on a party at a hotel in suburban Juhu, where drugs were allegedly being consumed, and rounded up around 86 persons.

They filed a 1,200-page chargesheet against 86 people while 35 accused, mostly foreigners, were shown as wanted, a police official had earlier said. The wanted accused include foreigners who left the country after the medical examination.
