Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra, are currently under police investigation in connection with an alleged fraud case involving Rs 60 crores.
According to officials from the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Mumbai Police, Raj Kundra is accused of transferring approximately Rs 15 crores from the total amount into a company account owned by Shilpa Shetty. To understand her role in the matter, Shilpa was recently called in for questioning.
Shilpa Shetty spent more than four and a half hours at the EOW office, where she responded to questions regarding her financial involvement. During the interrogation, she reportedly shared bank statements and details related to transactions linked to her advertising company. The police have also collected several important documents from her, which are currently under examination.
So far, statements from five individuals, including Raj Kundra, have been recorded. Raj’s statement had earlier been recorded in September. Officials revealed that the investigation team is still tracing the flow of funds to determine the purpose behind the alleged transfers.
In a recent update, Mumbai Police confirmed, “Investigations are going on against actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra in an alleged fraud case of Rs 60 crores.”
Meanwhile, the couple’s request to travel abroad was rejected by the court. Shilpa and Raj had sought permission to go on a family vacation to Phuket, Thailand, from October 2 to 5, but the Bombay High Court denied their plea. They had also applied for a stay on the lookout notice issued against them by the EOW, which has not been granted.
The case remains under active investigation.
