Raj Kundra comes forward with his FIRST statement following ED raids in adult content case

Just after the ED raided Raj Kundra's places regarding the adult content case, the businessman has now put out a statement. Recently, Raj posted on his Instagram stories, clarifying that he's working with the investigating agencies. He also requested everyone not to involve his wife, Shilpa Shetty, in the case.

“To whom it may concern, While the media seems to have a flair for drama, let’s set the record straight: I’m fully complying with the ongoing investigation that has been unfolding for the last four years. As for the claims of ‘associates’, ‘pornographic’ and ‘money laundering’, let’s just say that no amount of sensationalism will cloud the truth, in the end, justice will prevail!" he wrote.

“It’s unacceptable to repeatedly drag my wife’s name into unrelated matters. Please respect the boundaries…!!!" he added.

Friday afternoon, Shilpa Shetty's lawyer, Advocate Prashant Patil, also put out a statement denying reports that associated her with the investigation. “There have been reports in the media saying that my client Mrs Shilpa Shetty Kundra has been raided by the Enforcement Directorate. These reports are not true and are misleading. As per my instructions, there is no Enforcement Directorate raid on Mrs Shilpa Shetty Kundra as she has nothing to do with any offence of whatsoever nature," the statement read.

“However, the case in question is an ongoing investigation regarding Mr Raj Kundra and he is cooperating with the investigation for truth to come out. Would request the electronic and print media to refrain from using the videos, pictures and name of Mrs Shilpa Shetty Kundra as she has nothing to do with the case. Strict cognisance shall be taken against irresponsible journalism wherein the pictures or videos of Mrs Shilpa Shetty Kundra are shared on this matter," Shilpa’s lawyer added.

For those who might not know, Raj Kundra has been accused of supposedly sharing adult content through mobile apps and various platforms. He was also taken into custody in July 2021 regarding the matter but was subsequently released on bail.
