SunstarTV Bureau: Mumbai Esplanade court rejected the bail plea of businessman Raj Kundra, who prior was arrested in connection with creating and leaking pornographic content today.
On Tuesday, Shilpa Shetty’s husband Raj Kundra was arrested and was remanded in police custody till July 27. On Tuesday, as his custody ended, he was sent to 14 days’ judicial custody, while the bail plea was slated to be heard on Wednesday.
As the hearing started, the public prosecutor opposed the plea and said that as he is an influential person, he can intimidate the witnesses which will derail the probe. To this, Kundra’s lawyer said, “Is Raj Kundra a terrorist?”
Kundra’s lawyer also said that the chargesheet was already filed in April and many of the accused are out on bail. But the prosecution objected and said Kundra is a key conspirator of the case and rejected the bail plea of both Kundra and his business associate Ryan Thorpe.
On Wednesday, a fresh FIR has been lodged in connection with the pornography case against Raj Kundra in whuch the name of actor Gehana Vashishth has also been mentioned. Apart from cheating, charges of robbery has also been included in this FIR.
