Mumbai (SunstarTV Bureau): The Public prosecutor Aruna Pai informed the Bombay High Court that, the Businessman Raj Kundra was arrested because he had started deleting his WhatsApp groups and chats, thus destroying evidence.
Notably, Kundra the prime accused in the sensational pornographic films racket case has been remanded to judicial custody for two weeks till August 10. Besides Kundra, his Information Technology (IT) associate Ryan Thorpe has also been arrested in connection with the case.
Pai further revealed that the Mumbai Police had seized 51 pornographic films from two apps believed to be ‘Hotshots’ and ‘Bolly Fame’.
Actress Gehana Vaisith, who was arrested before being released on bail for her involvement in the case, had earlier claimed that the Mumbai Police had demanded a bribe of Rs 15 lakh from her to avoid her arrest.
“I have heard Gehana’s interview where she has mentioned the police asked for money and that is true. She arranged some money. Her lawyer told me that the police were demanding money and asked me if I can arrange some more money as Gehana could manage to arrange only Rs 6 to 7 lakh. About 10 to 15 lakh was demanded as per the call from her lawyer,” Thakur said commenting on Gehana’s claims.
