Delhi court asks City Police to submit latest report on Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra fraud case

Delhi's Rohini Court directs the City Police to file an action taken report on the latest development in fraud petition filed against Bollywood actress and her husband by businessman Vishal Goyal

New Delhi: Delhi's Rohini Court directed the City Police to file an action taken report on a complaint filed by Vishal Goyal alleging misuse of his money for a porn movie production by Bollywood film actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra. The matter was posted for the next hearing on November 9.

Petition filed by Vishal Goyal, partner of Artek Builders, said that Kundra and Shetty conspired to show Viaan Industries as a company with goodwill. He was told that the couple said that they have animation, gaming, licensing, technology and beauty products businesses.

Further, Goyal said that the petitioner invested Rs 41 lakh in the company, but later, it was found that the accused used the money for allegedly making porn movies. The petitioner sought to register an FIR against the accused alleging forgery and criminal conspiracy.

Kundra has been entangled in the pornography case since July. Kundra along with his aide Ryan Thorpe was arrested for allegedly producing adult content and streaming it through an OTT platform on July 19. However, the Bombay High Court had granted interim bail to Kundra till August 25.

Kundra had sought anticipatory bail in the FIR registered by Mumbai Police Cyber Crime Cell. Claiming that he was falsely implicated, he said that he was being made a scapegoat, and there is no evidence to link him against the HotShot App.
