Shilpa Shetty gives her statement on Raj Kundra Porn-Case to Mumbai Police

After searching Shilpa Shetty's and Raj Kundra's Juhu Residence ln Friday evening for 6 hours, Crime Branch Officials that were working on the case against the Businessman left the place with the Actress's recorded statement. Now, a report in Mid-Day quoted a police official and informed that in her questioning, Shilpa denied being involved in the production of the pornographic content. Further, it was also reported that in the raid, the Crime Branch officials seized all the electronic gadgets from their house.

As per the Mid-Day report, a police official said, "She (Shilpa Shetty) said that the movies available on Hotshot are not pornography but erotica. She also said that nowadays, similar content is available on the various OTT platforms and in fact, some are more obscene than what is available on Hotshot." Reportedly, the businessman also denied being involved in productions of such videos and so did his wife. The reports say that Kundra reportedly told the cops in his statement that everything was handled by his brother in law Pradeep Bakshi in London and that they only chatted via Whatsapp. The report added that the cops are not depending on the businessman's statement.

An official told the daily, "We have enough evidence that he (Raj Kundra) was dealing with everything, his brother-in-law was made the owner of the London-based company just for namesake." The Crime Branch officials probing Raj Kundra's case have not found Shilpa to be directly linked with those who shot the alleged adult content on the pretext of giving them a chance to work on leading OTT platforms. As per the daily's report, Shilpa was questioned for hours about her 2020 move to exit from Viaan Industries. The officials suspected that the actress may have apperantly done this fearing legal obstacles due to the connection between Kenrin Limited, HotShot and Viaan Industries. The reports say that the cops have also found transactions between Kenrin and Viaan Industries.

Late night on friday even Raj Kundra was taken to his and Shilpa's Juhu house after his custody was extended by the Court till July 27. After the custody was extended, Kundra and his Lawyer moved to High Court. Reportedly, his lawyer claimed that Kundra's arrest in the matter was 'illegal'. And the Court had denied Raj's bail pleas as well. The Businessman was arrested on July 19 under various sections of the IPC and IT Act.
