New Delhi: On Monday night (July 19, 2021), Mumbai Police's Crime Branch detained businessman and actress Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra in a case involving the creation of pornographic videos and their distribution through several applications.
In a news release, the Mumbai CP claimed, "In February 2021, a case was filed with Mumbai's Crime Branch regarding the making of pornographic films and their distribution through various apps. On 19/7/21, we apprehended Mr Raj Kundra in this case, as he looks to be the main conspirator. This is supported by significant evidence. Please be patient while the investigation is underway.”
Raj Kundra is a relative of Pradeep Bakshi who lives in the United Kingdom, according to Crime Branch sources. He also owns Kenrin Production House, a corporation situated in the United Kingdom. Pradeep Bakshi is Raj Kundra's business partner in addition to being his relative and chairman of this company.
Kundra and Bakshi's explosive WhatsApp chats disclose how money was transacted and significant sums of money were acquired through pornographic content. It's a WhatsApp group discussion in which other people's names are also mentioned.
It has been discovered that Raj Kundra's former PA (personal assistant) Umesh Kamat worked as a representative of the Kenrin production house in India, which provided contracts to a number of pornographic film agencies and facilitated funding.
Gehna and Kamat used to carry on with their task of making pornographic films after receiving advance payments, and they would send such stuff to Kenrin Production House via email account. Money was deposited to their accounts shortly after they sent the link.
During the course of its investigation into the same pornography case, the Mumbai Crime Branch learned that Kenrin Production House is active in the pornography business and funds pornographic content through various agents around the country.
