Raj Kundra Case: The Bombay High Court today will continue hearing the plea by businessman and Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty’s husband Raj Kundra challenging his remand and custody and all subsequent orders of the Magistrate Court in relation to the pornographic film racket case. Meanwhile, actor-model Sherlyn Chopra, who recorded her statement before the Mumbai Crime Branch’s Property Cell on Tuesday in connection with the case, has accused Kundra of sexual assault in a complaint, in which she has alleged that Kundra once showed up “unannounced” at her place following an argument between them and started “kissing” her even though she “resisted”. Sherlyn also claimed that Kundra told her that his marriage with Shilpa Shetty was “complicated.”
On Tuesday, the Bombay High Court had also refused to give him any urgent temporary relief. The public prosecutor opposed Kundra’s bail plea, saying he is an influential person and can intimidate witnesses (after being released from jail) which will derail the probe.
The police have claimed that during their probe, it was found Kundra set up Armsprime Media Pvt Ltd, which, through London-based Kenrin Pvt Ltd, bought ‘Hotshots’ app to upload objectionable videos on social media. They had also said Kundra earned over Rs 1.17 crore between August and December last year by uploading pornographic content online through Hotshots.
The police claimed to have found 51 obscene videos – 35 with Hotshots logo and 16 with BollyFame logo, during searches at the office of the accused. After Kundra’s arrest, the crime branch had described him as the “key conspirator” of the case.
