After
a
criminal
case
was
lodged
against
Shilpa
Shetty
and
her
hubby
Raj
Kundra
for
duping
a
textile
firm
owner
for
Rs.
24
lakh,
the
businessman
said
his
wife's
name
has
been
dragged
to
create
media
hypes.
Kundra
released
a
statement
on
Friday
in
which
he
says
that
'the
vendor
is
misusing
his
connections
in
various
stations'.
"This
is
a
civil
matter
and
an
abuse
of
the
law.
We
have
tight
contracts
signed
and
on
the
contrary,
the
vendor
owes
us
money
for
not
fulfilling
orders.
Beat
deal
is
unfortunately
being
wound
up
due
to
the
business
failing
and
we
are
following
the
laws
of
the
land
to
close
the
various
matters
properly," Kundra
said
in
a
statement.
Kundra
also
added
that
Shilpa
has
nothing
to
do
with
the
daily
running
of
the
business.
"It's
sad
that
at
every
step
of
the
way,
my
wife's
name
is
dragged
in
to
create
media
hype.
She
was
a
non-executive,
who
had
nothing
to
do
with
the
daily
running
of
the
business," he
said.
