ED has raided the houses and offices of Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra. ED has raided the couple’s house in connection with the money laundering investigation related to creating and selling obscene content through mobile applications. The ED investigation is based on a 2021 Mumbai Police case.
Kundra was previously arrested by Mumbai police in 2021 in the adult content case and later granted bail, is also under scrutiny in a separate money laundering investigation related to Bitcoin fraud involving Ajay Bhardwaj. Raj Kundra was caught in the ED’s net earlier this year when his properties, including a flat in Mumbai’s Juhu, a bungalow in Pune and equity shares worth Rs 98 crore, were seized as part of a money laundering probe.
When did the legal trouble start?
The duo’s legal troubles came after the ED started investigating Amit Bhardwaj for his involvement in a Ponzi scheme in 2018. While Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra were initially seen as suspects. Both Raj and Shilpa maintained their innocence and claimed that they had fully cooperated in the ED investigation. Raj attended many summons and Shilpa also showed all the papers.
