The Mumbai crime branch has appointed forensic auditors to look into the financial transactions and bank accounts of businessman Raj Kundra, arrested in an adult films case
The
Mumbai
crime
branch
has
appointed
forensic
auditors
to
look
into
the
financial
transactions
and
bank
accounts
of
businessman
Raj
Kundra,
arrested
in
an
adult
films
case,
a
police
official
said
on
Tuesday.
Also,
no
clean
chit
has
been
given
yet
to
Kundra's
wife,
Bollywood
actor
Shilpa
Shetty,
in
the
case,
he
said.
The
bank
accounts
under
the
lens
include
one
joint
account
of
Kundra's
Viaan
Industries,
a
company
at
the
centre
of
the
alleged
porn
racket,
and
where
Shilpa
Shetty
was
a
director,
the
official
said.
There
are
some
bank
accounts
of
Kundra
in
which
money
was
deposited
from
overseas
,
he
said.
So
far,
investigators
have
not
found
flow
of
money
into
any
of
the
bank
accounts
operated
by
Shilpa
Shetty
from
those
which
are
under
the
lens,
the
official
said.
"But
as
this
is
a
part
of
the
investigation
and
analysis
of
accounts
is
on,
there
is
no
clean
chit
yet
for
Shetty," he
maintained.
"We
have
nothing
to
do
with
any
personal
bank
account," the
official
said.
Kundra
was
arrested
by
the
crime
branch
on
July
19
in
the
case
related
to
alleged
creation
of
pornographic
films
and
publishing
them
through
apps.
The
45-year-old
businessman
earned
at
least
Rs
1.17
crore
between
August
and
December
last
year
from
his
business
of
production
and
online
distribution
of
porn
films,
the
police
told
a
magistrate's
court
earlier
in
the
day.
The
magistrate's
court
later
remanded
Kundra
in
judicial
custody
for
14
days.
Kundra
has
contended
that
the
films
made
by
him,
which
the
police
claimed
to
be
pornographic,
did
not
depict
direct
or
explicit
sexual
acts.
