Meanwhile, bollywood actress Sherlyn Chopra on Thursday has been denied anticipatory bail in the porn racket case.
Amid fear of getting arrested by the Mumbai Police Crime Branch, Chopra had moved Mumbai Sessions court to seek protection well before time. However, the Court turned down her plea, paving way for the investigation agency to record her statement as a witness in the creation and publishing of pornographic content on applications.
Chopra’s lawyer had told the court that the bail application was filed as the actress feared her arrest just like the others accused in the case. He further added that Sherlyn was not refraining from the investigation.
Advocate Siddhesh Borkar appearing for Sherlyn Chopra argued before Judge Sonali Agarwal and said, "This is the same case where accused Raj Kundra was also not given notice under 41 A and was straight away picked up.Same happened with other people also who involved in the porn case.
The investigation team had even gone through her statement in the Cyber Cell case, therefore, to collect strong evidence against the arrested accused in the case, they wanted to get Sherlyn Chopra’s statement.
Shilpa Shetty has also been interrogated in connection with the suspected pornography case. According to sources, she also got into a big fight with Raj after he was brought home by Crime Branch during a raid. Shilpa allegedly asked Raj why he was getting involved in all of this and how his actions are ruining the family's image.
