What is the whole matter?
The Economic Offenses Branch of Mumbai Police (EOW) on Monday recorded the statement of Raj Kundra, husband and businessman of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty in a fraud of Rs 60 crore. The officers provided this information. An official said that EOW personnel questioned Kundra (50) for more than five hours in connection with the case. His statement to avoid the eyes of the media was recorded at an unknown place. “We recorded Kundra’s statement today (Monday) and will probably be summoned again next week because many more witnesses are needed before the next round of questioning,” the official said.
He said that no summons has been issued to co-accused Shetty, as the EOW is still collecting evidence. The EOW is investigating the fraud of Rs 60 crore registered in Mumbai against the actress and her businessman husband. The case was registered against a well-known couple and some unknown persons, who is alleged to have allegedly cheated Rs 60.4 crore in a loan-conscience deal associated with their now closed company ‘Best Deal TV Private Limited’.
