The statement of actress lawyer Prashant Patil has now come to light on the news of the transfer of Rs 15 crore by Raj Kundra to Shilpa Shetty’s company.
The lawyer said that all these allegations are completely false. Shilpa’s legal team claimed that the news has been deliberately spread to spoil the actress’s image.
The official statement of Shilpa Shetty Kundra’s lawyer said,
Some media reports claimed that my client Shilpa Shetty Kundra received Rs 15 crore from her husband Raj Kundra about 10 years ago and is allegedly investigating the transaction of Mumbai. In the beginning, we want to make it clear that this news is completely false and misleading. It has been intentionally spread so that the image of my client is tarnished. We will go to the root of this false news and take action under the law. We will file criminal and civil cases against all fake news. My client Shilpa Shetty Kundra has never received any such money. Since the matter is in court, not much information can be given yet.
The statement further stated,
My client is forced to make a case against such media houses and online portals, who raised the news without checking the truth. My clients are now taking security of the law against those deliberately defaming. We have always been cooperating with the investigating agencies and will fully fulfill it, but strict action will be taken against false and defamatory reports as it is a violation of my client’s fundamental rights. My clients are going to Bombay High Court to stop this defamation campaign. Those who have run fake news without investigation, now they will have to face its consequences in the court.
In fact, Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra are investigating the case of fraud of Rs 60 crore. Recently, the NDTV report claimed that Raj Kundra had transferred about Rs 15 crore to Shilpa Shetty’s bank account out of Rs 60 crore.
Raj Kundra and Shilpa Shetty were married in 2009.
What is the whole case of fraud lodged against Shilpa-Raj?
In fact, in August, a Mumbai businessman Deepak Kothari has filed a complaint against Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra on a fraud of Rs 60 crore. According to Deepak Kothari, he met Shilpa and Raj Kundra in 2015 through agent Rajesh Arya. At that time both were the directors of the best deal TV and Shilpa had more than 87% shares of the company.
In a meeting, it was decided that Shilpa and Raj will give a lamp to Kundra’s company. A loan of Rs 75 crore was sought for the company, on which 12% annual interest was fixed.
Deepak Kothari alleges that Shilpa and Kundra later told them that the loan may face tax problems, so show it as investment and will give returns every month. In April 2015, Kothari made the first payment of around Rs 31.95 crore. There was a second deal in September due to the continuation of tax problems and between July 2015 and March 2016, he transferred more than Rs 28.54 crore.
Overall, he gave Rs 60.48 crore, along with Rs 3.19 lakh as stamp duty. Kothari claims that Shilpa also gave him a personal guarantee in April 2016, but in September the same year she resigned as the director of the company.
After this, a case of not paying a loan of Rs 1.28 crore on Shilpa’s company came to light. Kothari had no idea about this. He asked for his money back several times, but did not get any reply and money.
The first case was registered at Juhu police station under fraud and forgery. Since the amount was more than 10 crores, the investigation has been handed over to EOW.
